Memorial Day in Maryland

Okay, I'm a little late in reporting back. But we were in Maryland for Memorial Day for the best possible reason: Our friends, Josh and Melissa, FINALLY got to bring their baby home! I may have mentioned them to you before; they have been waiting what seems like FOREVER to meet this little boy. We all go to great lengths for our kids, but how many of us have to wait for years and then travel to Korea?? Sweet baby Thomas is home in Maryland now and has been baptized by his daddy.
He had such a good attitude for a jet-lagged, confused, sleep-deprived little mite! As long as Mama and Daddy were near, he was pretty happy.

Another happy family. Prego hormones combined with this visit made me rather teary this weekend.

I was rather bad about taking photos this trip. Too busy experiencing life? We got to visit Kinderfarm Park on Saturday with the Browns and the Sutters (well, minus their Pater Familius). So, three babies, one five year old, five friends, animals, and no pictures. Go me. We had a splendid time, however, including animal visiting, giggling kids, the playground, a picnic, ice cream and a group participation project to break into Marijke's car! Good times!

A couple shots: Miles always LOVES playing piano, with our without help. Here he requests the alphabet song (over and over and over). He impresses me with his efforts to match pitch!

Yay Ma-mah!

Miles poses in Annapolis with Kunta Kinte. We had just had a lovely coffee, getting caught up with old friends downtown.

And you can see how enormous I already am! More on that later...
