Three things to love about a visit from my dad...

Well, as the timing of this post shows, Lucy (this week the size of a melon) is starting to slow me down a bit. My dad's visit was a perfect break between lots of busy weeks at work trying to wrap things up before she comes and quite a few baby classes and appointments...
We took a little trip to Amherst for homemade onion rings and a visit to Emily Dickinson's house. These little white houses with her poems are everywhere right now.
My dad assembled Lucy's crib and rocking chair, put up her blinds and curtains, and a hundred other things we had been postponing for just the right moment. Isn't it starting to look ready for someone?
For his last night in town, we indulged Lucy's sweet tooth with these delicious ice cream samplers in the South End.
