All is right in the world, Hagan and Datty are together again.

The treehouse master is back with babe in arms. We spent the weekend lounging, doing laundry, yard sales and hiking in the philly beauty. Hagan is so dang happy to cuddle up to papa again. I’ve been updating my style since it’s new to me to dress for warm weather+biking+work all at once. So, I’ve been playing dress up. I’ve also been crafting gifties for friends. So, Enjoy all these pix.

Charming Nashville

We spent the weekend in Nashville with all the treehouse men. Hagan was over the moon with daddy. He was a terrific travel companion and quite the busy bee trying to discover all that Nashville had to offer but was overexcited and fell into long, snuggly naps time and again. The treehouse men are working overtime as usual racing the clock for grand finale. SX found some estate sales to peruse and I went thrifting while the men were in the trees. Hagan and I are back home doing the daily grind while Daddy finishes to return weeks end.

Hayley and the Babe play while momma prepares for Nashville!

Hagan has been all over Philly playing in any kind of water feature. We played with Beth in the Whissahickon and Hayley took him to Fairmount park and some spray parks…and the backyard kiddy pool too. That baby/toddler/kiddo is really developing a sweet personality. I just want to snuggle/smooch on him all freakin’ day. We will be visiting the treehouse build this weekend… we are both super excited to see the datty.

To Indy and back

We had quite an adventure trying to get out of town. With car problems to hurricane storms we made it out a day late… But it was well worthwhile. Grandparents and auntie/uncle were there to greet us and we traveled to The Lake for a baby shower complete with new baby and ALL the relatives. It was a wonderful holiday. We came back needing to catch up on days of sleep! Hagan enjoyed cousins, swimming and funning with Grampa.

Father’s Day camping in the PA

After a week of father-son fun at home, we blazed out of philly three hours north to a state park that touts 21 waterfalls in just under a two mile hike! It did not disappoint. We ended the trip at a nearby (to the waterfall hike) beach and made some new friends. A lovely weekend, indeed.

Treehouse guy is home for a month!

The reuniting has been super squishy sweet. Hagan is definitely happy to have his daddy. It’s so sweet it makes my teeth hurt! We strolled through a new (to us) park this weekend and played house. Hagan found our spices and tried on some cinnamon. I must say, he smelled delicious. The entire weekend was filled with perfect sunny days and the subtle start of fireflies!!!!! Although, now it’s raining without cooling….And I gave myself a haircut!

Back on philly time

We were having fun getting into the swing of another smooth work week with play dates and smith park adventures with Hayley but suddenly Hagan came down with a small virus that caused a lot of sleep to happen. He finally seems to have recovered but only after momma dragged him to work and prom hair gig all while sleeping on her back. Such a sweet, tolerant babe. We followed it up with a zoo visit with a new friend.

Seatown

We skipped across some states to enjoy a quick trip with family. Seattle was on its best behavior and tried to woo us with its beauty. Love, food and beautiful vistas were had. Papa had to take off mid-adventure for another round of treehouse… So, he skipped over to Madison while I soaked up the Seattle loves. Until next time…
