Busy Little Weekend

We're so excited that the weather's finally getting nice again. Poor Zoe has been feeling really neglected since we hadn't been giving her too many walks in the cold weather. But yesterday we finally went on our first family walk of the season. It was so lovely to reacquaint ourselves with the neighborhood. See what people have done to their houses and yards in the past few months (the ones that aren't on our normal driving route). Eli was pretty curious too, taking in all the sights and sounds that he hadn't experienced in about 5 months - and I'm sure didn't remember. And then when we got home Aaron was VERY excited to fire up the grill for the first time this year and make us some hamburgers. Eli stood against the door the whole time, looking out at Zoe and laughing hysterically. So I'd say it was a good day, all in all.

My wonderful husband also finished hanging a bunch of pictures last night while I watched the Oscars (that he had no interest in). And we also got a bunch of laundry and errands accomplished over the weekend as well. Add to it that we hung out with some friends and played poker Saturday night - and I won! And we had quite a nice little weekend. Let's pray that the nice weather sticks around bc we're tired of this yucky winter stuff! Let us get outside and get some fresh air!

To quote my nephew, "Oh dear...."

Pretty grainy, but you get the idea. We're super excited but terribly frightened all at the same time. I hear that's sort of what parenting is all about.... :P
