Plymouth Beach

My friend Sarah called me yesterday and told me she was taking her (5) kids to the park in Plymouth which is right on the beach. She asked if Stefan and I wanted to join her and of course we did! The kids were having to much fun playing in the sand and water to even think about the playground! We all had a nice afternoon and enjoyed the nice weather. It is a blessing to have friends to do things with.

Wahoooooooooo!

Wondering what's so important about this picture? --(and NO, it isn't all the drool on the sheets!)
Stefan was in his pack-n-play on his tummy. I heard some movement so I decided to go peek and see what he was up to, and this is what I saw! Yep--he rolled over for the first time!

Hmmm...do you think I could get those in my mouth too?

Enjoying the beauty from others' labor

We were pretty excited to see a whole row of daffodils come up in our yard. I guess the owners of our house planted these last year, and we are certainly enjoying them this year! I have also noticed that there are tulip buds all around the front and sides of our house that haven't yet bloomed. I can't wait for those! It sure is nice to have flowers---especially when we didn't do the work:-)

Friday Fun!

Friday is Brian's day off from church. It was such a beautiful day outside--about 75 degrees--we decided to throw together a picnic and go to a park close to our house. We enjoyed being outside and taking a walk through the park.

This picture deserves its own post!

Newport, Rhode Island

We took our first family outing to explore the area. We drove to Newport, RI, a little less than an hour away, and had an enjoyable day seeing the beauty of the ocean and learning about the history of the town. It is a quaint little town and one we will definitely want to visit again.

It was a big day at the Hanson's

Spring Walk

Well, almost Spring. It was a bit chilly outside, but the bright sun made it feel a little warmer. Stefan and I enjoyed our little walk up our street. It was his first time to sit in his stroller without the carseat carrier part. What a big boy! I think he loved the new view! We also got to meet one of our neighbors so that was nice too! We are both looking forward to the warmer weather so that we can do this more often!

We miss Auntie Donna

It has been almost a week since Auntie Donna left. We had such a fun week together, and she spoiled us all! Come back in warmer weather and maybe we can actually enjoy the city!

Now THIS is fun!!!!

Saturday night we were at some friends from church for dinner. They gave us this Jumperoo. It has been used by multiple children before Stefan, but after throwing it in the wash and some clorox we were good to go! Stefan absolutely LOVES it! He can bounce and turn around to his heart's content. This morning he was squealing and cooing along with the bounce. You'll just have to imagine the sounds by looking at his face! Pretty cute! Thank you, Johnsons--he's having a blast!
