The deck is getting there!

We decided that cedar was too 2005 (yep, and too expensive) so we've gone with 'pseudo-cedar'. Also known Cedar Naturaltone stain....

Looks good eh?!

Nova has become a 'deck-dog'

We managed to clean up enough to play a bit in the backyard this weekend.

At first, Rian (being the cautious kid he is) wasn't so sure about the paddling pool.


But when he thought it truly was safe, he crawled right in!


Also some pics at the local playground taken earlier in the week.

And for all you non-parents out there, you won't understand the appeal of a picture like above. I sure didn't before.

But isn't this cute in an icky-kind of way?!?
