Paul has discovered the fun that can be had at the creek. Notice there are not actually any pictures of the creek. That is because when we get close I have to hold on to him for dear life because he wants to jump "in, in, in!!!" It is quite a long walk because there are many distractions along the way. Sometimes he has to lay down and rest on the way home.
Paul is becoming my little helper inside and out. He has learned to put stuff in piles, we have been piling up sticks outside. He also helped me find rocks and put them down on the black plastic I put down to cover the potential poison ivy. 
I got lots of great deals at the Spring Children's Sale at the fairgrounds, including a life jacket for Paul for our vacation. He enjoyed wearing it around.
It's amazing how much Paul has changed in just 3 gymnastics classes. At the first class he clung to me for dear life. Today he was running around with the other kids learning lots of new things. He enjoyed crawling through the tunnel, walking the balance beam with Miss Rhonda's help, and jumping on the trampoline.
You can see the progression of the snow slowly melting and the mud taking over. 
Paul and I started Playful Parenting classes at Gym Dandy's last week. At first he was really shy, but this week he had a lot more fun. They have a baby pool full of something each week (corn meal this week), like a sandbox, and he had a blast. He also had fun rolling down the wedge mat and climbing up and down the slide. Last week he was to scared to stand on the parachute; this week he thought it was cool.
Paul loves brooms and the mop. He says "mop" and "bop" for broom. We have to mop at least every other day because he enjoys it so much. He walks around making the "woosh" sound the steam mop makes.
