day 3. desmond's first social outing

On Sunday, the day after we got home, we decided to take Des out for a little walk. Robin wanted to stretch her legs and we wanted to break in the new stroller. The little walk turned into a long walk as we made it all the way to our friends Lys and Carl's house about 11 blocks away. Carl has been freakishly excited for the Cracker's arrival. There we got to see Lys and Carl, their two-year-old, Theo, and next door neighbors Sara and Mark (who also works with me at MapQuest). Even though Desmond didn't bother opening his eyes once for his new friends, everyone got a kick out of meeting the little guy.

When the time came to head back, Theo grabbed his own toy stroller so he and his parents could accompany us back. Robin soon realized she was probably pushing things a little too much so soon after delivery, so Carl came to her rescue and drove her back home VERY slowly alongside the rest of us walkers.
