It's been hot around these parts lately (for Seattle that's low to mid 80s). I'm not complaining but it is difficult to take a 3 month old outside when it is bright and sunny because they overheat and they don't take kindly to sun protective clothing like hats. In addition, Iris doesn't really have a napping schedule. So I can't really get much done in the yard unless I've got someone around to watch her.
I picked up some compost a few weeks ago and this last bag has been waiting to go into a corner of the yard since then. I just left it sitting on the grass in an attempt to kill some more of our dreaded lawn. This evening it cooled off to a perfect temperature and Iris was in one of those happy moods-content to play with her own hand quietly- so I seized the chance to do some weed/wildflower clean-up and get the compost down.
Iris was quite content to lounge on a blanket in the grass while I completed my chore. It looks a lot better than when I started and now I don't have to look at that last bag of compost every time I come in and out of the house! :)
