Cousin Ian and Noelle in the Bath


We're so glad to have a new friend to play with. Our cousins just moved to Woburn for a new job and we couldn't be happier to have them nearby to play with and hang out with. Now only if their furniture would get here (just kidding.) We have had the pleasure of hosting them during the interim. This now means that Grammy and Papa Mitchell have half of their great-grandchildren in New England with them!

Enjoying the First Warm Days of Spring

Thank goodness Auntie came for a visit. She brought the nice warm Utah spring air with her and we enjoyed as much of it as we could. During her visit we broke out the new jogging stroller, hit the Minute Man Trail a couple of times, visited the Wilson Farm, went to the park (Noelle hated the swings most of all), had some good old fashioned retail therapy, hung pictures with velcro of all things, and had a traditional drive in circles around downtown Boston while looking for a parking spot - to no avail. We can't wait for her to come again so we can find some new places to explore.

Eating Dirt


Now that spring has finally arrived we planted some pansies in our flower pots in front of the house. Noelle was helping with the process and decided that she should taste the soil. It didn't make mom happy that she continued to taste it after she had already spit it out and it was all over her shirt. Hence the sad face and dirty shirt.

Morning Protein Shake

Noelle was trying with all her might to drink some smoothie through the straw. However it was kind of thick and took some extra effort, but it was worth it.
