We had a nice Easter today. The weather was beautiful, the sun was shining and Baby-O was smiling!

We had brunch at home this morning and then went for a walk and lounged in the park for a while. The little man was not quite sure about the grass at first, but he came around to it.





A few shots from earlier in the week with his lion pillow from Grandma. He loves to tackle and hug the lion - it is pretty cute!


Of course, once he sees the camera he comes right for me.

Big Day!

We had Baby-O's first birthday party yesterday. It was a big success - thanks to lots of help from family!

Happy Birthday!

Wow - it has been a whole year - it is hard to believe! Baby-O has grown so much and our lives have changed so much, and I would not trade it for anything.

Here he is a year ago...


And today...

Two Sundays

Baby-O and I ventured down to the Tidal Basin for the Cherry Blossoms today. I wanted to go because Tom and I spent the morning down there the Sunday before he was born last year. The lesson of today: don't go the Tidal Basin on the only nice weekend day during the Cherry Blossom Festival. There were so many people, it was insane! But, I got my picture - so it was worth it.
