Mush, trim and a shed

It rained all last week and the girls seemed to have cried through all but a few hours of it. They gave us a brief reprieve on Thursday night, though, when they tried their first mushy food. Check out video of it under their video link to the left.

Will and Patrick went to get Will's hair cut for his first day of nursery school and Will sat in the chair by himself and he didn't even cry. What a big boy! He usually freaks out and has to sit on Patrick's lap so this was a special day.


Later this afternoon, Patrick and one of his co-workers enjoyed a few beers and put most of the shed together. Rather than napping, Will darted out of the house and into Patrick's arms begging to help. It was pretty heartwarming. Will helped by putting all of Patrick's sockets into his dump trucks and rolling them around the yard and by burying many of Patrick's screwdrivers hilt-deep in the ground. Ask him if he helped though, and he'll smile the biggest smile and say "Uh huh!"
