First picnic of the year!
Backyard picnics are so much fun.
Especially when you are eating huge strawberries.
Ila May is one week old and already enjoy some fresh air!
I have taken two weeks off from work to help Kimmy.
Everyday has been something new and fun.
What a simple pleasure for me.

No kidding that is a big strawberry!!! WOW. ;)
ReplyDeleteThe baby in the sun in priceless. You've inspired me to a little picnic action myself. What are we waiting for? No more winter picnics on the living room floor for us. :)
