READY, SET, GO!

Connor's new favorite thing to say is "ready, set, go" 

then he takes off running around the house.

He spent most of his morning filling the back of this truck with dog food

and dumping it out for the dogs to eat.  

We have cabin fever bad today, we're excited the weather is warming up.
We are ready for some park days!

This is one of Justin's old toy cars he's kept all these years.  

I love that he's now given it to Connor to play with.

So fun! 

MAKE WAY FOR DUCKLINGS

 One of my favorite books when I was little was

 MAKE WAY FOR DUCKLINGS by Robert McCloskey. 

 I will be headed to Barnes and Nobles this week to pick up a copy for Connor.

If you've read the book you know it's about a friendly police officer named Michael who lives in Boston and helps a mother duck and her ducklings cross the busy road.  

There is even a park in Boston dedicated to this sweet book.  

Here's a photo of the me at the park.

We have these signs posted around our neighborhood 

We also have flocks of ducks and ducklings.  Connor and I get so excited when we pass them on our walks.  

Sunday we saw these cutest bright yellow ducklings.  Their Mama was getting pretty upset so we kept our distance.  

We also watched the cars stop and wait patiently for this group to cross the road.  They couldn't decided what side they wanted to be on.  Finally they decided to head for the golf course! 

It's so fun having ducks in the neighborhood and you can imagine how excited Connor gets when we see these sweet ducklings.  Happy Spring!
