Spring Break so far...

It has been a great Spring Break so far! Days off from school are ALWAYS good, but spending time with my feller and 50-60 degree weather make it even better!

On Monday, Jeremiah and I met up with some friends for a playdate! We went over to Tristan's house, and all of Jeremiah's buddies were there to play.

This is Jeremiah with his girlfriend, Ruby. They are destined to be together-- they have already spent one (fully supervised) night together in the nursery at Mercy Hospital! Jeremiah and Ruby are just starting to notice each other and interact, which is so cute! Of course, in this picture Jeremiah is showing off a great smile and Ruby is ignoring him....


Here is Jeremiah with all his friends (and mommy's friends, too)-- Ruby's mommy, Ruby, Tristan, Parker and his mommy, and Ryker and his mommy. We had a great time watching the little ones play (or just sit there) and chatting about babies! Hopefully we can do it again! :)

Of course, when Mommy gets together with her friends, sometimes Jeremiah ends up wearing silly things. Remember this?. Jeremiah may or may not have been seen in a tutu while we were there (Celeste has those pics!). He also sported these for awhile:


So today we had nothing going on, so I decided to try my hand at making homemade bread. Too much reading blogs/websites like The Pioneer Woman, I think! And what did Jeremiah do while I baked?

Very similar to a picture of his Uncle Matt wearing a Jello mold on his head, huh Mom? :)

Jeremiah also did this for awhile. And he napped. It's kind of a long process (which is probably why I have never attempted it before). Doesn't it look good? The house smelled heavenly, too!


And when Jeremiah got up from his nap, we decided to brave the low 50's weather and take a walk up to the park!

Ready to go!


J LOVED the swings, of course!


This was his first time at the park as a walker, so he was a bit hesitant to walk on those strange wood chips! Eventually he got the hang of it, though. We had a great time-- it's supposed to be warmer tomorrow, so we'll probably head back then! :)

  1. SOOO impressed with the bread!! Was this made with a bread machine or totally on your own? If no machine was involved, I think that Grandma Waanders' genes just jumped over my generation and went to you! And yes, the one picture definitely reminds me of the jello mold pose. :)

  2. No bread machine! My arm got a serious work-out, though. :)

  3. Wow, now I am even more impressed! Was there yeast involved??? Yeast totally scares me, unless it's in the bread machine.

  4. Yes, there was even yeast. I was intimidated at first, but I hoped that I would not be able to mess up a recipe titled "Easiest White Bread." :) And it's really good-- of course, I think so, but even my 2 guys agree! :)
