Alizah is 2months now- smiling and laughing now, coughing and squealing sentences to us. She is delightful, must be why her name is Joy Joy.
Rayna loves when her sister is awake. She says "he got eyes wide open! He awake!" or if she is sleeping "Hi Alizah! Wake up!" Rayna has started reading Alizah her favorite books- mother goose (she remembers almost all the rhymes and which rhyme goes with each page).
We have been doing more gardening. We risked putting in a few annuals and so far they have not been frost bit (even though there was a heavy frost in most of the area last night). I started my brussel spouts and the rabbits have nipped a couple. For Mother's Day, Rayna and Levi gave me a scare owl. I asked "do city rabbits even know what owls are?" I don't think they do because another brussel sprout was gone this morning.
Rayna has her own little garden bed. So far she planted 1 grape tomato plant, peas, radish and spinach. It is framed with a headboard and footboard I scavenged on Throw Anything Trash Day. I also found a slide for her that we set up to our picnic table.
On April 28th we woke to about 1 inch of snow on the trees. Levi said, "Rayna, look out the window and tell me what you see." Her reply "oh, big snow!"
