7 months

it is mother's day here in the UK, and Ruby is now 7 months! somehow ruby and gratch bought me some fancy chocolates for mommy's day and managed to get me a cute card too! what exceptional babies i have! mother nature is also celebrating the day, giving us sunshine and no wind, a combination that we rarely see this time of year. that means we are headed out for a nice long walk and some frisbee.
march is a month we have all been looking forward to here. for me it means the beginning of spring and time to work in the garden. my garden was neglected somewhat last summer and fall with ruby's arrival, but i am hoping to get it back in shape! for david, march means the start of fishing season! something he has been anxiously awaiting since last october, when last year's season ended. i have promised to take up fly fishing this year, we'll see how that goes. might end up with ruby, gratch and i being spectators and hecklers instead of actual fishers. that sounds more up my alley!

awww.. your first mother's day with a real live baby! i think jessica only waited a few hours. LOL

that is simply the most adorable photo of your two (human) loves i ever have seen. tazzie thinks so too - he said he was going to get ruby a ring when he saw it!! no lie! and he came up with it all by himself! if only i'd had the camera rolling...

Aw! Such a lovely family you have there! Isn't it great that Spring is coming? I'm so happy. I keep forgetting that Mother's day is different over there. I can't wait to see pictures of you fly fishing with Ruby in a back pack!
