Our Weekend

The weather in Michigan this week, was absolutely beautiful!  We spent the entire weekend outside playing.  Saturday, Karson got to see Bumpa's "Big Truck" for the first time.


Karson named my Dad "Bumpa" a few months ago.  My Dad drives semi trucks.  He drives cows from one farm to another, to visit their friends.  Yes, that is what we tell Karson. :)  Karson loves to point out semi trucks to us.  He always yells "BUMPA!" whenever he sees a semi truck.  When we are driving and he doesn't see any, he says over and over again "More Bumpa. More Bumpa!"  He can spot a semi truck a mile away!


Karson had never seen my Dad's semi before.  He got to sit on Bumpa's lap, and drive Bumpa's truck.


My Dad showed him how to use the radio...


Then my Dad honked the horn, and Karson got so excited!!


Thankfully, my Dad's semi is out in the country.  So only a few people heard the 2 year old honking the semi horn over and over again.

Sunday was even more beautiful than Saturday!  It was also my 25th Birthday.  DJ had to work, so before lunch DJ and I headed to Nana & Bumpa's house.  We played outside all day! 


We are usually really strict about nap time, but I just couldn't bring myself to take him inside, so he got a late nap.  It was absolutely beautiful outside!


He cheers for himself each time he makes a basket. :)


Picking up the pine cones, my Dad through in the yard for him.  He had so much fun!



It was, of course, necessary to dump them down the slide each time he filled up his bucket.


Aside from the fact that DJ had to work all day, it was the perfect birthday!  I loved getting to spend the day outside with my family, and Karson was so much fun!


he looks so old to me in this picture!!

The weather is supposed to be warm all week again.  I am praying we have a nice warm day when we get to bring Sister home.  Getting to sit outside snuggling a newborn, while Karson plays sounds like Heaven to me!

Spring

**New Post below this one.  All about our Tulip Time outing.  Blogger has issues.**

There has been a slight lack in blogging lately on my part.  I have a good reason.  Promise!  
It is finally starting to feel like spring in Michigan, and we are enjoying spending all of our time outside.  I have lots to tell you about but it is nearing the end of nap time, so a quick post will have to do.

The Beach 
Last week, I woke up and decided Karson and I were going to go play at the beach.
It was 50 degrees and windy!
 We were the only ones there.
 But Karson LOVED playing in the sand.
 We played, at our sandwiches, and headed for home.
 Ice Cream & The Park
We no longer live in the boonies.  YAAY!  I miss our old neighbors, but I am loving living close to everyone again.  Making quick ice cream and park trips doable.  There is an ice cream shop conveniently in between our house and Auntie Leesh's.
 I love the hey wanna meat for ice cream texts.
 Right next to the ice cream place, a perfect park for Karson to play at. 
Yaay for living in town again!

Wagon Rides 
He loves them.  That's all.

 Baths
To remove the sunscreen, needed for the wagon ride.

The Zoo
I'm not sure our 'Zoo' should even be considered a Zoo.  It should just be called the Monkey Place, because that is about all that is there.  Really, not kidding.  On the plus side, Karson can now sign monkey, and it is hilarious. 
Aunt Katie and Karson at the petting zoo.  
Which consisted of this goat, 1 other goat, and 2 sheep.
Told ya...lame zoo!
 Goggie
Karson loves his Goggie.  I love that Karson and Molly love each other so much!  Every little boy should have a goggie.
