Worms

We took advantage of the warm and sunny weather and headed outside this afternoon. I spent four hours cleaning up the lawn and weeding our two raised planters. I'm tired tonight, but glad to accomplish so much this afternoon because the forecast for this week is...yes, you guessed it...rain.

Ryan and Caitlin joined me after naps and discovered worms. They spent a good hour looking for them, digging them up, and holding them. Here's a little video...


Here's Caitlin holding her find. I had to watch her closely to make sure the worm didn't make it into her mouth!



Ryan got a little adventurous and climbed the tree in the back. Just after this picture was taken, he stepped on a weak branch and fell to the ground, breaking two branches on the way down!

And lastly, here's a funny picture of Caitlin and all of her "stuff." I often laugh just looking at her!

Cute pictures. Aaron has been digging in the dirt all weekend too. He's learned that he can climb and managed to make it up the ladder on our play structure. Now I can't turn my back on him for a second or he's 1/2 way up already.
