Chris, Anna, and little Kyle came to visit us this weekend from Maine and we had a great time! The boys played outside in the beautiful weather together in the yard and at the playground. They woke up early together and watched Thomas and read books and they were so cute! We hope they can come visit us again soon!
We had a very nice weekend with Grandma and Grandpa. Danielle babysat Alex on Saturday night and we went out to dinner for my birthday and it was wonderful. Sam and his Dad worked on the deck and also got some mulch for the gardens. Grandma helped with some painting and some yard work. Alex was very excited to play in Grandpa's truck. Auntie Joel got him a Red Sox hat and he loves it! Alex was a very good boy yesterday and that was the best Mother's Day gift he could have given me! 
Today was a rainy day so we decided to try out an indoor playground called Imagination Island. The first thing we saw when we walked in was a train table full of Thomas and Friends and Alex pretty much played with that for the first 30 minutes. Then he got a little adventurous and decided to branch out and see what else was going on - he had a blast! There were cars and bubbles and slides and blocks and a tunnel... he made it about and hour and a half and then he put his head down on a mat and said he was sleepy. So that was our clue to head home for lunch. He fell asleep in the car on the way home and never did take a nap, but we had a great day!
So as you can see, we have a bit of a squirrel issue. I threw a rock at him today and lucky for him I have lousy aim.... but I'm practicing! By the way, we threw that first cushion away from the earlier pictures - these are the second and third that were attacked.
