I've got Sunshine...


Jack by the flag pole (thanks for the flag you can't see in the picture, Andy)

Well, the weather has finally been warm enough to play outside (ok, not the last few days, but this post has been meaning to be written for a few weeks now!). The kids have discovered a love of all things dirt and grass (but, for Jack, not most things bugs--only butterflies). 
Sheridan is quite fair (thus the need for a hat) and thirsty (thus the sippy). Sheridan also is really hungry. This voyage to the front yard yielded a veritable goldmine of tastiness--dirt.  Apparently, it's much tastier than those disgusting meals Mommy keeps trying to shove down her gullet. Hmmmm, maybe if she ate more than dirt, she'd outgrow this 3-6 month skirt she still fits into. Fortunately, she has FINALLY (at 15 1/2 months) outgrown her baby carrier. As of Thursday, she weighs 20 lbs 2 oz. That's enough to face forward, baby! Now if only she'd try some real food again, she might fit into some 12 month pants!

Yes, outside is always good fun. Especially when you've got your sibling right beside you. Aww!

So cute!!! Maybe Sheridan thought the dirt was like that yummy dirt cake you make! Mmmm, delicious!!!

So, are you suggesting that maybe those of us with picky eaters just start serving the dirt at the dinner table? That would sure make life easier for me!
