Look what's happened in a year! Ronan has turned from toddler to boy:
| Late May 2011 |

*Great visits! Friends, grandparents, and more... summer is travel season!
*The making of a garden...(or how to get your friends to work while on vacation)
Step 1) Fell tree
Step 2) Hand toddler a hose so he can wet the cardboard
Step 3) Watch as he discovers he can draw with it in jet mode
Step 5) Admire!
*The transit of venus! The first and last chance Ro will have to see one, and see it he did!
*More visits! First BandD, then Oma and Grossvater, then Tata and Boo!
