I just can't get enough of our brand new garden alongside the house! We have almost all the flowers up now - lots of tulips! Purple allium are going to be the last to bloom in the back closest to the house. Don't worry, as soon as these wilt, our peonies on the opposite side will steal the show! I love spring!
Babies
Saturday night we got to hang with our goddaughter Quinn for the evening! Eric really got into reading her books and he even put her to bed.
It just melted my heart to hear him practicing his lullabies over the baby monitor. (BTW, he hums any words he doesn't know.) :)
Baseball
And of course it was opening weekend for the Iowa Cubs, so we went to the Sunday 1:00 game, hoping for sunshine and a taste of warmer weather. We went early enough we were among the first fans to get free t-shirts. Here is Eric with his first brat and beer of the baseball season!
We didn't make it to the bitter end - it started raining in the 9th inning and it was hovering at 50 degrees, so we made a run for it. I think we got out at the right time - it went into 11 innings and our Cubbies lost. Oh well, it was fun to go and I'd rather be cold at the game than hot and swollen!
1. I am TRES jeal of your tulips! 2. you have to send me those pics of Eric and Quinn. Too sweet. 3. Your i-cubs reference makes me want a hotdog.
