Lindsay in the backyard. 

It's moments like this around the house that remind me I really ought to take the boy camping/fishing sometime. 

This one's for the people that say I don't smile in pictures enough. You might get another one next year. 

Finally the weather is turning. Here we are in the backyard enjoying Spring Break. 

Nico is doing well and getting bigger very quickly. Here she is fascinated with a neighbor's dog. She is very playful and friendly. I don't think you could ask for a better dog with a family. Mostly Blue Heeler markings, but there's some sort of "X" factor in her mix. People at the park today simply loved her coloring and personality. She is also learning "sit", "stay" and "speak" very quickly. She just turned 4 months old.
