A sweet Mothers' Day snap of my wife and son
Summer is here! Well, warm weather is here. The sun is here. All of us are glad for it.
A few notes:
- Kristie and I drove to Maine and videoed our first wedding of the season last weekend
- Cows have replaced birds as Miles's favorite animal, and we've been making frequent visits to Flayvors to visit their cows
- I have an appointment with a gastroenterologist this afternoon to further investigate gluten-related issues
- Our craft room has been taken over by Kristie's work and Miles's toys, so I'm carving out an ill-advised space in our basement for a little sewing room (see all the moldy, haunted, creepy details in my Instagram stories)

Lots of our friends are welcoming new babies, so these have been on heavy rotation in our kitchen (both for them and for us, even though no one is breastfeeding in our house anymore!)
I've also been meal-prepping a bit, and would like to try readying some broccoli breakfast sandwiches
