Help around the house

Jack's parents spent the day with us today & we had a great time along with getting a lot of work done around the house. They came over pretty early and while I fed Jaxon, they worked out in the yard with Jack. Our 'landscaping', using that term very loosely here, needed a lot of work as it had been quite neglected since infertility treatments & pregnancy. Thanks to their help, the bushes were shaped up, dead plants pulled up, weeds cut down & some of the trees were trimmed. The small shed also was reorganized & lots of unused/worn out items trashed. The yard looks a ton better already. There is still a lot to do but it is the more intensive stuff like reseeding the yard, etc. All the work that was done makes the yard look tons better and I don't think it would have gotten done any time soon if not for the help! I also got some work done in the house like cleaning my office & doing laundry, while Jack's mom held & entertained Jaxon. We topped off the day with a trip up to the Draft House for some fish & chips!!

Today was also our 5th wedding anniversary! Since Jaxon is only 11 days old, we did not make any plans to celebrate. We've known since the beginning of my pregnancy that we'd likely not have a chance to do much celebration this year. We'll have to make up for it another year!
