Mother Nature has finally decided to give in and give us some warmer temperatures. In fact, I think she might've skipped straight over spring and right into summer. We've had temps in the 80's for close to a week now.
And it happened just in time. Ella isn't quite mobile {though she's certainly trying}, and I was really running out of things to do to occupy our time.
Enter the blanket: a Pottery Barn quilt I bought when I was in my teens. It has become our saving grace. Front yard or back yard, we don't discriminate. Georgie is a blanket staple, as well as sunscreen, and a magazine or two for me. I throw a few of Ella's toys on there and we're good to go. Though, truth be told, she's just as happy to roll around and pick at the grass.
We have picnics. Mostly puffs for Ella, an apple {or something not nearly as healthy} for me. And sometimes Dave joins us when he gets home, which is the icing on the cake.
