Fun among chaos
Today Namine had a playdate with her friend Norah and I had adult conversation her mom Amanda. We have been trying to go to the zoo for quite sometime, but the weather and the schedules just did not line up until day.

Gross things to do in a restaurant
Amid running errands on Saturday, we went to Cousins for lunch. Nothing is ever boring or mundane.

Friends wherever she goes
The first Friday of every month in the summer, my city has this outdoor community event. Music is played, food is served, and everyone gets plenty of exercise and beer.

Daddy-daughter time
Jessica went out this evening for a girls’ night out, so Namine and I took advantage of the nice weather and went to the park.

Another picnic picture
I just wanted to post this. The folks at RVA posted this picture (among others) on their Facebook page — Namine with her new friends at the picnic.

Milestones
Yesterday was the first day of Namine’s new physical therapy schedule. Instead of once a week, she’s got it twice a week. Her therapist felt that this is the right direction, since she’s been improving so much lately.

Planning a birthday
Jessica and I were compiling a list of children, with Namine’s help, to invite to Namine’s upcoming birthday party.

One more day
As I sit here typing this out, I should be home. We should be home. We would have headed home from my aunt’s this evening, but for inclement weather. With the strong winds and rain — and threat of hail — we opted to stay the night, and head home tomorrow evening.

Making brownies
Namine and my aunt made brownies this morning. It’s not often we make brownies before breakfast, but you need a break every now and then. Even better, Namine was thrilled to wear her new chef apron and hat.
