Warmer Weather

It seems like spring just didn't want to come this year. Last summer & fall seem like a lifetime ago. It was chilly & rainy & blah for so many weeks. Every day I would wish for warmer weather. It finally arrived last week, & we had gorgeous days that hit the upper 80's & 90's! The first day we had windows open & were enjoying the sunshine & warmth, but by afternoon our house was heating up quick! I decided to turn the AC on, only to find out it just blew basically hot air. My wish came true a little too much! Reiley & I just lazed around trying to stay cool. She didn't mind it too much. She liked kicking around in bare feet. I have to say, even though the heat became very uncomfortable & overpowering, I would choose that way above being too cold! This winter, while I was still in Charlottesville, our heater gave out for Loren. It was an icebox in our house. I think our heating & cooling system is trying to tell us it's old & needs to be replaced!







Yesterday Bryson stayed with us for a good chunk of the day. It was so fun having him here. He is basically a year older than Reiley. His age group is so fun! I am enjoying Reiley in the stage she's in now, but I know I'm going to have even more fun with her when she gets to be a toddler. Bryson didn't want to have anything to do with Reiley when we first brought her home from the hospital, but now he's definitely warming up to her. He is very sweet & gentle with her.




Eating yummy strawberries & blackberries that later will make Aunt Ruthie clean something unpleasant. I know I'm wearing a pink flowery bib, but mom forgot to pack mine. It's cute though, right?
