We’ve been pretty busy these last few days.  Jack has been learning how to stand on his own, and has done it here and there for a half second or so (blink and you miss it).  This has been enough to torch his little brain cells, so he’s been all sorts of cranky.  It sure doesn’t help that he’s teething, either.   Here are two gratuitous pictures, for your viewing pleasure:

I’ve also been working outside, now that most of the snow has melted (though not all!) and have been delighted to see that my roses, iris bulbs, and peonies have all made it through the winter.  Hurrah!!  I wasn’t convinced this was possible.  But they all show signs of growth, which is good.  Now let’s see if I can keep them alive in the spring and summer…

We’ve also been grilling every night since we got the new grill, and I made buns to go with the first nights hamburgers.  Holy cow!  Together, hamburgers and fresh buns kick ass.  In a good way.

They’re really easy to make, too, which is nice.  Mix dough, let rise for 45-60 mins, shape, let rise for 30-45, bake at 375.

Hope everyone is enjoying the spring… I know we are!
