Spring has sprung!
I love spring in North Carolina! Not like in Canada where it is still winter - nope, here Spring actually happens when it is supposed to! here are some of the photos I took this spring in Maryland and in North Carolina...
This was taken in Maryland on Mar 11 -crocuses already! I think in Saskatchewan the snow hasn't even started to melt yet! Like I said - here, spring comes when it is supposed to.

| By the end of April everything is green, especially at the swamp just a few miles from our house. |

too funny - Not what I had in mind...
This was not what I had in mind when I told them to put their boots away!
Oh and I don't think Ben thought me laughing at his boot was too funny!

ummmm....
There are no words, this is simply Ben!
He was on an adventure, which explains the binoculars. But I don't know about the swimming trunks combined with mitts and a snowhat (In Canada I would call it a touque!)

At Last!!!
Remember this from nearly a year ago?
Well the success of that round of potty training was this...

Sam was potty trained! Ben & Carlee were not quite ready, but during the last month they have both been working on being potty trained too. Here are the results...
Trying
Success!!
Trying
Leave it to Ben to have to double check,
Success!!
Hallelujah!!!
We have officially said goodbye to all diapers and are only in Pullups at night.
After approximately 20,000 diapers and pullups I am so thrilled to be done with them! In fact I think that this weekend calls for some target practice. Hubby has been bugging me to learn how to shoot and I think that the diaper pail will make a lovely target don't you?

Critters and more critters
The other day I walked into the kitchen and saw this... 
Luckily the camera was sitting right there on the counter and the way that the cat was lying there so casually I assumed that the frog was dead. But it wasn't, just waiting for its chance to escape. I have learned that well-fed cats do not catch things to eat them, they catch them to torture them - I mean to play with. Well, on this day, Tigger-kitty had caught a frog and brought it in the house to play with it in comfort!
The kids soon discovered what I was doing and came to investigate. Their excitement got the attention of the dogs and Ellie got in there to investigate. This was all too much for the frog who took a couple hops but his escape was blocked by the cabinet. I managed to get this shot before I put the camera down to rescue the poor frog. The words on this photo would be:
Cat: Oh I can still see you, but I just finished my breakfast so I am gonna play with you for awhile longer.
Dog: Are you gonna eat him or am I?
Frog: OH CRAP

By the way, I checked the frog and he did not seem harmed in any way. I quickly let him go, ignoring my kids begging to hold him.
I have also decided that Tigger-kitty must be bored. Yesterday, the outside doormat was covered with feathers. Thankfully the door was closed this time!

Our backyard

This is a shot of the cornfield that is surrounding our house, except for the driveway we are completely enclosed by this super tall corn!!! Just yesterday we saw a deer in our front yard, they are sure enjoying the corn feast.

Nap buddies


Ben is probably the hardest on the pets. If one of the cats scratches or one of the dogs growls it is almost always at Ben. So why do you suppose they prefer to nap with him?
