I Love Spring

So here are some new pictures for you, as you can tell, I'm all about the photos! My favourite time of year is from April to July, I love how green and fresh everything is. Oliver has been exploring more outside, he likes to eat dirt...and rocks. In another month he will be 1 year old!
We have booked our trip to Ireland, finally, I can't believe how complicated that was. The whole family is going, all 10 of us. It's slightly complicated because we are all leaving at different times and landing in different places and meeting in Ireland the first week of August. Julie is flying on her own with the kids to London to stay with a friend for a week, and Jon is joining them later as he has to work till Aug 3rd. Dave and I will be flying to Scotland on July 22nd and staying there for a week until my mom and Jen arrive on Saturday the 28th. We will then fly to Ireland together. My dad is leaving in 3 weeks (June 12th) and staying for 2 months. So Dave and I will be gone for almost a month...yippee!
We have also finally just planted grass in our backyard so hopefully in a week, we will see some green. I will post pictures then. In case you are wondering...we have lived in our house 3 years and the back yard has never been landscaped, but that is pretty much one of the last things on our list!
Other than that, I have one more month of maternity...boohoo, no more maternity pay! I will be going back to work on July 3rd just for tuesdays and every second fridays...we'll see how that goes. My mom will look after Oliver on tuesdays and Dave on the Fridays.
Whew...that's it for now!
