Spring has officially hit and the flowers are everywhere! I love it. We finally managed to get our yard looking close to normal, though there is still a lot of work to be done. I did exactly 0 minutes of yard work during the first 6 weeks we had Jamie home, and I sure paid for it! Charlie and I have been hard at work getting things back on track. The roses opened this week and I love all the color I now see when I look out the back window. Here are a few beauties from the backyard:
Katy Rose
Stephen F. Austin
Grandmother's Rose (Yellow Rose of Texas)
Archduke Charles
Irish Gold
The bluebonnets are out in full force too and we had a wonderful time doing Jamie's 3 month photoshoot. I don't have all the professional pictures yet, so I'll save that for another time, but Charlie and I did stay behind and take a few pictures ourselves. Here are my favorites:
Watching the clouds with a baby from my childhood. I made the blanket while I was pregnant. Kiddy sent him the outfit, which he wore for his first Easter.

Showing off his new skill: blowing bubbles
Daddy love
We are currently getting ready for Jamie's baptism this coming weekend so I've been spring cleaning the house for the past two weeks. Every day I've picked one room and cleaned it from top to bottom, including going through any drawers or closets and sending things off for donation. It's been a great system because I haven't felt overwhelmed with the cleaning and I have been tackling things one small task at a time whenever Jamie falls asleep. I'm lucky he's such a good sleeper and will take 2-3 hour naps between feedings. Now if he could only stay this way forever, right?
