My Future's So Bright...

With the exception of a trip to the pediatrician last week, Kate and I haven't left the house since we arrived home from the hospital. We've been lucky enough to have dad around to do our errands for us. It gets a little dreary sitting around the house all day long, so we decided that today was a good day to make our way into the outside world. To rid ourselves of the shut-in blues, we indulged in a quick shopping spree at BabiesRUs and lunch at the Golden Arches. Dad, of course, chauffeured. The day was beautiful -- breezy and in the 80s. It was a little on the sunny side, but like all smart glamour girls, Kate was prepared with her tiny pink shades.

By the way, Kate loved wearing her shades. Every time I raised them to see how she was doing, she furrowed her brow, wrinkled her nose and squinted at the sunlight almost to say, "Mom, stop fooling around. The sun's in my eyes."
