Nice weather= Fun weekend

Finnean had his first experience analyzing art this weekend at the Des Moines Art Center. Grant Wood's "American Gothic" is being featured so we went to check it out. Finnean didn't really like it but he did like some of his other pieces. He really liked Thomas Hart Benton-it was amazing to watch his little eyes scan the pieces like he was really taking it all in. Then we hit Grey's Lake for a brisk walk. He is getting much better at being in the stroller and seems to enjoy being out and about-as far as we can tell!! We are getting much better at being out and about too!!

Then we had a visit from Uncle Adam and Aunt Maddy from Lincoln. They brought him a cool jade plant to grow along with him! We hope to get a picture posted soon---and will continue to post as they both grow. It was nice to visit with Grandma Lisa and Aunt Ellie and cousin Carter.

I go back to work at the end of the month so I just continue to soak in all the time with Finnean before heading back :( I am not looking forward to that day-but moms do it all the time---keep me in your thoughts at the end of the month!
