Ian Visits the Farm

Although it was over 90 today, Ian spent a lot of time outside (carefully protected from the sun, don't worry, Grandma). There was a women's hike after church at Duke Forest, which Ian went on with me. He was in the Ergo carrier the whole time, except for a break to nurse and dip his feet into the stream. After this, we went to see Uncle Greg at his building site, as part of the Piedmont Farm Tour weekend.
