Heya!
How the heck are you all? I am starting to feel a bit like “Large Marge”, but know I have a long way to go in the belly size department. (Don’t make the mistake that I did and look back thru your pregnancy book from last time around. I did this and got a little nervouse. I have nothing yet compared to the last few weeks with O! oye, it’s gonna be a long summer, hee hee)

Thanks for the support on the recipe tab up there, I have so much fun in the kitchen and wish I could have all of you over for a big potluck to share food, photos, crafting tips, mamahood (daddyhood?) and chat. Isn’t that the downside to this blogging thing sometimes, your stuck on yourside of the screen and me on mine? They need to invent a ‘beam me up Scotty’ machine so we can just town/city/country hop!

We had a great weekend.

SUPER busy and filled with family and friends. We started off the weekend on Friday evening with a bunch of family over for pizza and homemade ice cream (thanks Lo for the ice cream, it was soooo good). We got to meet the “girlies” (Daddy-O’s cousin’s little girls, if that makes sense) and had the whole cousin chaos over.

Bubbles and side walk chalk were a hit with this crew.

While I sewed and O napped, Daddy-O was out in the back yard hanging up the shade sails. He got two of the three up and the yard was perfect for lounging. Once O woke up from his nap we pulled out the little kiddie pool and cooled off. O had a great time running around (without any thing on) and I totally enjoyed putting my feet in the cold water. It was a perfect way to celebrate the first real ‘hot’ day of the year. Our friends from down the street came over for dinner with thier girls and we got in a good visit.

Later in the evening we headed up to a friend’s house for another BBQ and visit. The kids bounced around in the little bounce house after dinner while the adults chatted and caught up with each other.  (O enjoyed smooshing his face against the side almost as much as he liked ‘jumping’)

What a great weekend. I am *almost* glad to be going back to work today for the down time!
