Yesterday was our first day at home with no help from grandparents, brothers, or sisters (although Mary brought us dinner, and it was very nice). The day went very well.
Linda did all the work, Guy slept when he wasn't eating, and I cleaned the house. Lincoln went back to school and got to share photos of his baby brother with his friends. He is the third kid in his class of seven to be a big brother!
In other news, the night Guy was born the big maple tree in our front yard was blown over by the crazy winds. Luckily (for us) the tree fell into our neighbors' yard and driveway and not towards the house. It was completely blocking the street, but there was no damage to anyone's property.
We found a tree service that would clean it up quickly, and they spent most of the day yesterday sawing, hauling, and grinding. Lincoln had fun watching them put the big pieces into their massive grinder, and we were impressed that they removed every speck of the tree - not a single twig was left in our yard.

Well, dang! I'm sorry about the tree...that's always a huge bummer.
On the bright side, I'm glad Mr. Guy is sleeping well; hope you are too!
Wow. Same thing happened to us on our wedding day. Tree blew over blocking the only road out of my parents' house, which was where I was staying. Some may call it a portent of doom, but we don't believe that stuff, right? ;-)
You weren't singing Rock-A-Bye Baby, were you? "Rock-a-bye, baby/ In the Treetop/ When the wind blows... Holy Crap!"
All kidding aside, I'm very glad no one was hurt. Looked like a pretty big tree.
