I looked in the garden today and our Cilantro and Dill are coming up! Having things grow and live inside is one thing, but seeing things grow outside makes me giddy. The trees are turning that bright, neon green of early spring, the mountains are greening up, and the sky is impossibly blue. Spring in Missoula, amazing!
Ben and I ran the Missoula Riverbank 10K yesterday and aside from having numb and frozen fingers, it was very nice. Ben did really well and I finished, so good times! We are almost half way through our training for the 1/2 marathon and I am hopeful that my knee will behave and let me run the race.
Sulli is obsessed with being outside these days, not that I can blame him. Every time we come home we have to hang out in the backyard for a while before he will let us come inside. He is also saying "bye bye" to just about everything he sees. "Bye bye boat. Bye bye car. Bye bye traco (tractor). Bye bye lettettet (elephant). Bye bye truck." It's hilarious.
The chickies are big enough to hang out outside for a while too now. Sulli is having a hard time being gentle with the chickies though and isn't at all alarmed by their screaming when he tries to pick them up, boys... Check out the video at the end to see how Sulli is saying 'water' these days. I have no idea how this started but it's pretty funny.
Becoming a little man! Wonderful pictures. I love the serious ones. I suppose it is accidental, but he just seems to be thinking such deep and meaningful thoughts. The chickens look like chickens now. If he picks them up by the neck, well, that's what their necks were made for, after all. He's learning everything he hears, so watch what you say. Love you all.

ReplyDeleteOh, I also wanted to comment on the young man's fashion sense. He's a free thinker and breaking new ground in mixing colors and patterns. Take note, fashion world. This is the future.
