Sharon made this cool baby carrier after a version of the Maya wrap called Mei Tai. She did a good job on it. I think it is supper comfortable.

Quinn Update
Hey Family!
Ira is super mellow right now, and might be falling asleep, so here's my chance to let you know how things are going for us... which is, great!
* Easter and Conference: We drove up to Niagara Falls, which was a blast. The Romeros were fun as usual, and took us to Lake Ontario where we skipped rocks and squinted to see Canada. We also went on a hike, made peanut butter eggs, painted real eggs, and ate both. We hid and hunted for eggs, watched Where the Wild Things Are, and of course conference. Anthony and I decided that we'll have to spend the next several FHE's reading the talks since we were distracted by cousin cuteness and Ira much of the time. Ah, first conference as a parent. Ah, so this is what it's like?
* D.C.: After Niagara, we drove to to D.C. where we got a glimpse of the blossoms (beautiful!), caught a free concert at the Lincoln Center, and got to go to the temple for the first time since Ira was born. Woohoo! The concert was fabulous! It was a group from Brazil, doing fun stuff you just want to jump up and dance to. We felt kind of bad for the performers since they are probably use to a much more lively audience. We were also really lucky to be in the District during the Ellsworth Aunts' visit, so Aunt Janet, who forgot her recommend was able to watch Ira, while the rest of us went in. We also met Christian Hurst (for those of you who know him) and his wife for dinner. They just moved into town, and took us out to a Greek tapas place.
* Ira's asleep. What a cutie! We can't get enough of that kid. He's cooing, and sleeping more at night, and squeeled with joy so loud yesterday that after recovering from the shock, I couldn't stop laughing.
* Project of the week: I made a mei tai. It's an asian style baby carrier, and I loooove it. It's really comfortable, and cute..at least I'd like to think so. We'll keep using our Maya wrap, but it'll be better for long walks and hikes.
O.k. visiting teachers are on the way. Love you guys!
