Update

I have a few random pictures that I thought I should post. As you can see above, Marcus loves guacamole. He had three bowls, and I think some of it actually made it into his mouth.

Here are the kids helping me make guac (actually, Marcus is just dumpster diving for a snack). Elena washes produce and eats it about as quickly as I can chop it. I took her with me to the grocery store the other day. As we walked through the produce department she said, "Oooh, yummy cucumbers! Can I have one Daddy?" Then "PEPPERS!" and "I want tomatoes!" Other parents looked on in disbelief.

We've been enjoying excellent weather lately and have spent lots of time outside. Here is a picture of Elena honing her gardening skills. She also helps me feed our 100-plus chickens and collects eggs daily.

On Mother's Day, we fetched Karen's grandpa from the care facility for our family brunch. He's getting along very well considering that he broke his femur a few weeks ago. He did so well that we plan to pick him up again tomorrow for dinner. The only picture we took on Mother's day is this one, where Marcus is hijacking Great Grandpa's walker.
