A lovely 3 mile walk..
Baby happy in nature’s carrier
Ice cream for a snack (the only food in the house the baby could imagine eating…stupid appetite)
Husband in the yard, building something
Neighbor’s dog looking for something to play with
Wife in the kitchen, cooking something
Ambient music playing
Ravioli, green beans, frozen peas, all cooked in one pot of simmering water. Topped with salt, pepper, smoked gouda cheese hunks and dabs of butter.
Lemon water sipping
Romance
From my back porch looking in!

…. and wife looking content with baby in natural carrier, presentation finished, and crib purchased!
Sounds like you had a great day Kath. Hope dinner was delightful! 
All wonderful – except my crib order was cancelled
What a wonderful day!
…when the baby craves something, it’s just best to oblige. How sweet its going to be!
I say it was less of a craving and more of an aversion to every other snack I could think of
looks like you all are really getting the chance to use that porch and enjoy the beautiful weather! Have a great evening!
Too cute! I love that song!
What is Matt making?
A coffee table from 2 pieces of reclaimed wood
Hope you’ll share pixs when it’s finished…..
so you get sweet cravings like I did when I was pregnant:)
I had major chocolate cravings but tried to control the intake since the caffeine and the sugar obviously..
I’m actually not interested in chocolate, which is weird…
Oh yum, ice cream sounds great
Love the tulips on the table. You are definitely getting great use out of the porch!
This is pretty much the perfect spring evening, I think! I need to get to WF and find that ravioli. Yum.
Looks like you had a lovely day! Gorgeous pictures
That dinner looks so refreshing and Spring inspired. I can’t believe it reached 80 down there today!! This weather is crazy! I’m glad you are radiant and vibrant!
Matt is such the carpenter. It is great to have a carpenter in the house!

Love this post and the poetic sounding language
PS. I must not be human because I sure do forget to click that box often!!!
If that’s not the perfect evening, I don’t know what is! =)
That table looks like its going to be beautiful and a gorgeous photography back drop. Loved the old rustic wood!
I have to agree on how nice it must be having a handy husband… Mine thinks he’s handy
Dinner looks delicious. You are always so creative!
Ahhh… this weather! When we were eating outside tonight, I told my husband that we need to savor these days before the mosquitoes start coming out and ruining our good time!
LOVE me some Ray Lamontagne! (and ice cream…)
Going to Charlottesville for a short weekend trip tomorrow! I don’t know what I’m doing–my boyfriend is planning the trip–but maybe I can get a chance to stop by the bakery
Oh fun!!
Love Ray LaMontagne! Good choice in music!
Such a sweet post
Put me in a good mood!
Looks like the perfect evening!
Lovely post–everything looks so pretty!
Baby happy in natures carrier threw me off because it was followed by a picture of your face haha!
Love the pictures and the flow of this post!
That pasta looks delicious!!
Is that a cute little iPhone speaker?
Yeah, super cheap and very nice! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004OA714U/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details
what a perfectly lovely evening! you guys are such a cute family — only to be cuter when the little one arrives!
Seems to me like you had a perfect day! Dinner looks delicious!
Sorry about the cancelled crib order — am sure you’d be able to get it soon
Short, sweet and simple! Makes me wish we had some outdoor space!
It’s officially wayyyyy nicer there than in San Diego! Lucky you
My favorite pictures….flowers and romance and sunset
Such a cute post!!!
That dinner looks so fresh and yummy. I love green beans. Also, Ray LaMontagne is absolutely dreamy…his voice is so raspy and thick. I love his music so much and agree that it is perfect cookin’ music.
That looks like the perfect life to welcome the lil baby into! Life has been crazy for the past few weeks and Im so enjoying catching up on your blog
I’m always weary about boxed meals but that ravioli looks great!
This meal looks simple yet amazing and healthy! Thanks for the reminder that you don’t always have to work real hard. ^_^
Such a pretty back porch table set-up! I love eating outside during the springtime =)
The ravioli dish sounds so simple and yummy! I love it like that.
Very romantic indeed! Beautiful end photo with the tulips and budding trees in the background!
What a perfect spring time dinner!
It does look quite romantic!
Well you definitely can’t deny the baby’s request for ice cream – that would just be cruel!
That dinner looks so simple and delicous!! Excellent!
such a lovely post-your writing is beautiful.
Looks fantastic! Great pics
Your dinner arrangement is so enchanting and romantic! Perfect way to end the day…
