I busted out the skateboard for Mare Bear a couple of days ago, and the first thing she did was try to stand on it. Summer is starting to look good to me now!
I have to admit, it is really nice having a little bare pavement for Merrick to run around on. She chooses to walk on snow whenever she runs across it though. This kid is tons of fun!
The Neerhof Grandparents came up on Saturday and brought GG up to spend some time with little Mare Bear. They had a great time. Little sleeping beauty.
We are lucky enough to have some Irish blood in us...Grandma K sent out the green duds, she even went to school with some shamrock socks on! The bear was from her first St. Pattys, it used to be bigger than her! Have a great day!

Merrick is a tough name to say if you are only 16 months old,but she comes pretty darn close.
Super sad today, Uncle Josh is on his way back to Michigan. Waiting for little Mare Bear to wake up, I know she will be looking for him. She had such a blast while he was here. Worked her way up to good night kisses and even saying his name.(ossh.) It is so hard living far away from your family. I wish so badly that everyone could see our amazing little girl more. Come and visit!
I think Merrick would sleep out in the snow if we would let her. She had her first hard fall, bloody lip and all, then the very next day she took another one. Tough little girl!
Merrick learned to climb up onto the couch by herself yesterday. That used to be the safe zone for the dogs. Rikta didn't seem to mind being used as a cushion. They sat like this for over 20 minutes!
