Fun at Grandma and Grandpa's

When I first looked at this picture, I was sadly able to see that my little baby isn't a baby anymore :( Megan just looks so grown up in this picture, but very cute (and yes I teared up a little when I saw this picture)

Megan got her tricycle for Christmas and loved being pushed around the house. Now that it is nice out she had been able to ride her trike at Grandma and Grandpa's backyard (thanks to the very flat concrete that was poured last year!) She can't reach the peddles yet, but that doesn't slow her down at all. I don't even remember showing her how to steer or anything but she is amazing to watch her back up, turn, and stop. Although she did get going a little fast after going down the "hill", we now have a helmet for her!

Let me just take a quick second to explain these following pictures...my parents have a "Brady" backyard. After years of trying to grow grass in the very shady backyard then adding a crazy Golden Retriever to the mix, they decided the best option for them was to have a Astro-turf backyard. It is awesome!

Last year they had the concrete redone so Megan was helping Grandpa cut the grass and nail it back into place.
Grandma was trying to give Megan another lesson on how to use the hammer, but as you can see Megan wasn't paying attention. ***Note that my mom was doing this about 6 hours after having surgery on her shoulder!!! She is doing SO much better now***

Now she's got the idea!
At this rate she will come in handy for home remodels (that is whenever we buy a new house!)

Here she is in action. She caught on quick and lost interest quick! But she sure was cute while she was being such a big help.

I understand your emotions when you notice that your baby is no longer that baby any more. I had that same feeling when Brenden received his first hair cut.

Love the pictures. She is so cute.
