Summer is in the air (even though it's only May)

So we had a busy weekend this weekend, all of which kept me from doing what I should have been doing (grading, cleaning) but at least I got to enjoy the almost perfect weather.  Friday night Sarah went to her first concert.  My daughter is a baby after my own heart - she loves music (and it's not thanks to what I played her while I was pregnant, since most of the time my car is tuned to NPR).  When I sing to her, be it lullaby's or Katy  Perry she bounces along happy as a clam and apparently really loud rock music also makes her happy.  We went to Herndon Rocks with some friends, and there was a point where she was laying on her back staring at the (starless) sky and just kicking her legs bouncing around.  She also took time there to practice her new found rolling and scooting skills.  I am going to have to baby proof the house sooner than I expected.

Saturday Great grandma Andrews came back from Florida.  Again, the weather was perfect so we took time to hang out on the deck bouncing around.  This was the best picture I got of Sarah and Grandma mostly because she doesn't sit still.  I am glad that my grandmother has moved on from calling her "baby" to using her name.  I am so lucky to have my grandma in my life, and even luckier that Sarah can have not one but three great grandmas.

Today we were supposed to be productive and really, for the first five or six hours we were... then the weather was nice, and I live on a fabulous street, so Sarah got some quality time playing on neighbors toys.  The best part of the day was the girl who LOVES to stand up would NOT put her feet down on grass.  As soon as they were anywhere near the grass she's pull them up into a sitting position and freak out if she got too close.  As much as I love having a little princess, I'm not sure I can deal with one who won't get a little bit dirty.  Thanks to Gabi and Anna for sharing their dog.

I don't know how many more days left in school I have, but weather likes this really makes me wish summer were already here.
