e heard about the four seasons in Maine: summer, fall, winter, and mud. This is mud season! Poor mom and dad have a guy come and plow the snow off the driveway after big storms, and he's not very careful when he does it, so when all the snow melts in the spring, they're left with big welts in the side of the yard, and small piles of sod way over in the other side of the yard. This year in Maine there was tons of snow, so lots of damage to the yard!This morning we did some yard work (mom did, mostly, I
helped a bit while mostly chasing Oliver around). In one photo, you can see Oliver actually sitting with his feet in one of the big welts! Later on, he slipped into another one that was full of water and mud, and wasn't too happy about it! Half of him was covered in wet mud, and it took him by surprise.

He refused to take his midday nap, which was strange... I tried for well over an hour, and he just wouldn't settle down - very frustrating for mom! I guess it was just stored up energy from being in the car all day yesterday. In the afternoon, we went next door to see Weston (just turned 2), Rich, and Nicole, and had a great time over there for a couple of hours. Oliver and I got to have some great blueberry juice, yum!
