Iain's days of discovery

Iain is enjoying being outside, now that the weather is more suitable. He has discovered Thomas's cricket bat, and--although he doesn't exactly know what to do with it--would not let it go! He has shown an early interest in any kind of outdoor sport, the best of which is his frisbee-throwing! It is little more than dropping at this point, but he will bring me the frisbee and make it clear he wants to play!
The sandbox has been replenished, much to the little one's delight. Iain must have spent 45 minutes this afternoon just playing with the sand. He endured having it poured down his back--courtesy of Anna--without a complaint. He's happy to leave the trucks to Thomas and Anna (see below). All he needs is a shovel and his two little hands. I suspect that the spring is going to involve a LOT of time outside.
Thomas and Iain played beautifully together for quite a long time. Eventually, of course, Thomas decided to hop back on his bike, and this lured Iain out of the sand. Anna has been a little under the weather--I didn't take a photo of her asleep in front of the Wiggles, though it might have been cute.

Anna's eyes are healing well, and much less bloodshot now. No crossing! So hopefully we'll have smooth sailing for a little while (knock on wood!).
