Over the Weekend

As she continues to grind through the illustrations for Volume 16, Robbi spent most of her weekend hunched industriously over her painting table. But we still managed to have a bit of fun here and there.

For example, Alden discovered her feet the other day.

A few minutes later, Robbi discovered hers.

Alden cooked dinner.

With a little help from her dad.

And then she did the dishes.

Alden and Robbi were unexpectedly awakened from a nap.

Alden sat in her little plastic eating chair for the first time.

Robbi told Alden a joke, which confounded her, initially.

But suddenly she got it, and all was well.

My brother Alex paid a visit.

It was his first time meeting Alden, who seemed to think highly of her uncle.

Last night, we went to a swanky wedding at a swanky estate.

My favorite part was the driveway.

They hung lanterns from the trees.

After paying our compliments to the blushing bride, our friend Katherine...

...we walked down to the water...

...and watched the sun set.

As midnight nears, Robbi is back to her brushes and I am off to wash the dishes, this time with no help from the baby, who had the nerve to fall asleep.
