Seems like spring has taken forever to get to Albuquerque, we had what is sure to be (knock on wood) our last snowstorm last week, and now we hope these blue skies and 70s are here to stay.
We've been hard at work anticipating the nice weather, this black plastic hole is where we will plant our garden soon. Our little seedlings are getting bigger and bigger in the windowsill.
In the meantime we planted some lettuces and broccoli in a planter.
Camille tried roller skates for the first time and absolutely hated it, predictably. I have many horrible memories upon roller skates and am not at all surprised that my control-oriented daughter despised them too. I kept them on her for about as long as it took me to get this picture, then relented and let her take them off.
Here's a silly video.
Then Camille got her first hair cut!
It was getting so long.
We did some more gardening...
And playing outside,
And inside.
Our good friend from New York, Nate, came to visit and ski last month. He and Camille get along great, they both spent the whole time trying to make each other laugh.
Remi went to Orlando for a few days and brought back some Disneyrific presents for Camille.
Here we were experimenting with homemade face paint.
Admiring her masterpiece
At the carousel
And then our lettuces started taking off, we ate from our first harvest in middle March, pasta with spring lettuce.
We hosted an egg hunt for one of our playgroups. Everyone came to the house for brunch, then we went out to the arroyo to hunt. It was so fun! Camille had a successful hunt for sure, I think all the kids did.
That last snowstorm.
Some playground pictures
Camille is still taking ballet and loooves it. She will have a recital at the end of May, get ready for some video!
