Spring is truly here! Our backyard fruit trees are beautifully blossoming and are so pretty to look at!
We are only going to be keeping the one pear tree (white flowers) and cutting down the apple and peach as they are too close to our back fence line. But we have another peach tree planted in a barrel so hopefully in a few years that will begin to produce.
Our landscaper was out to the house recently and it looks like we will finally get started on our new yard in about a week. Here are some “before” photos of the backyard.
We are going to have a mulched play area for the kids and some garden boxes along the back of the yard and then the rest will be sod. I have been imagining it for a LONG time now, super excited!
Leo has been pretty consistently telling us when he has to pee for about the last week. Sometimes it’s because he wants to get in the tub and we usually try to have him go before getting into the bath and other times I think it’s because he genuinely realizes he has to pee. Anyway, the other night he had just gone and I gave him his potty treats (three jelly beans) and I was getting dinner ready when he came in from the living room to show me his masticated jelly bean on his finger. I think I said something like, “That’s nice,” though I might have also said something like, “Cool! Eat it up!” and went back to making dinner.
A few minutes later I looked into the living room and thought there had suddenly sprung a bunch of dirt piles on the carpet. Except it wasn’t dirt. It was poo! I hadn’t put Leo’s diaper on because he had just peed and I figured he was good to free ball it for awhile. That jelly bean on his finger? Yeah, that was poo. I’m really hoping I didn’t tell him to eat it. *shudder* So Jesse got Leo into a bath while I cleaned up the carpet. Good times with a toddler! I guess the lesson here is if your kid hasn’t pooped all day you should either have them wait longer on the toilet or diaper up after getting off. Probably both.
For the past year or so we’ve blocked off one of the bookcases upstairs. I’d been using it for a shipping station and general catch all for all the crap I was too lazy to put away. Well Leo has very easily been able to get past the gate for awhile now so I finally cleaned out all the things (sales have been really slow lately, anyway) and we took down that gate. It’s crazy how open the living room feels now.

We moved the printer downstairs and got a new shelf for above the TV and the Xbox is on top of that now, and we rearranged all the cords so there is just the singular power cable cord plugged into the wall. Leo has been leaving that alone so far.
I was working a case at work the other day for a handheld console that had 1k games preloaded onto it. One of the games was Super Mario Bros., the original. It got me to thinking how much I loved those old games growing up and while they were challenging it’s not like the overly complicated games available today. These years past I’d bought either the PS or Xbox consoles but had drifted away from Nintendo. I don’t know why, because I’d always enjoyed their games. I toyed around with which console to get, the older/proven Wii U or the brand new Switch. The Switch had a lot of points going for it but in the end I decided to go with the Wii U because they already have a HUGE stable of games and the tech is solid. And it was about $100 less. It should arrive soon and I’m excited! Granted, I play video games maybe once a week so it’s kind of a silly purchase but I think we’ll all make use of it.
Did you know I made it 36 years without having a cavity that needed filling? That’s right! My teeth rock! But alas, all good things must come to an end. I am scheduled to have my first cavity filled in a couple weeks. I’m a little freaked out by the thought but am pretty sure I can handle it. I mean, I handled c-section recovery and also dying after childbirth with relative ease, what is a cavity filling compared to that?!
Since September I had lost about 40 lbs on the ketogenic diet, which was great. The trouble is, it’s hard for me to stay on it. I miss the crackers, chips, sweets. Pretty much everything that got me here in the first place. I’ve fallen off the wagon the past couple months and as a result am up 10 lbs again. Today I start once more. Wish me luck!
