Memorial Day Weekend

We've had some good days and some less than stellar days since Evan's arrival. Everyone is adjusting in their own way to the change in our routine and probably more so to the fact that I'm often occupied with the baby (and tired and impatient). But things seemed to return to normal this weekend. With Zig around for four days and lots of friends to play with, everyone seemed to be happy and back to their old selves. I know we will have our bumps, but it was sure nice to have such a lovely and peaceful weekend. We stayed close to home and took it easy. Here are some of the highlights that made the weekend memorable, even though we didn't get out and "go" anywhere.

Ice cream cones and sunshine


Evan loves the sway of the hammock

Open windows


Chubby baby


He winks!


Simple salads
And the last of the tulips
