A Walk in the Park

Dad models the Baby Bjorn while Chickpea models the little pumpkin hat that Kristen knitted for her. With four straps, five strap adjustments, and 8 additional fasteners in four different varieties, Daddy had to use all three of his engineering degrees just to get the darn thing on.

Chickpea gives the Baby Bjorn her coveted "Infernal Contraption of the Week" award, then promptly falls sound asleep for the trip around the Arlington Reservoir. Mom really likes not being house-bound as well!

Audrey's friend Ben, 2 years old, made her a wonderful sign to welcome her home.
