New neighbors

So much as happened this last few weeks, I'm just going to throw random thoughts at you here and there :)
First, we have been BLESSED with great new neighbors. We are in a culdasac (spelling?! not so sure) with 4 other houses, and have met 3 of the 4. So far, we have been brought homemade chocolate chip cookies from the girls 2 doors down, and a beautiful bouquet of flowers from the neighbor 2 houses the other way. Such friendly people! We are also lucky to have mostly "younger" neighbors, as the people right next door just had a baby boy last week, and the people across the street have a 1 year old girl. Today as I was out trimming the lilac bushes, our neighbor right next door (a couple in their 50s- maybe 60s since they are both retired) came over to check when the kids nap schedule was so he didn't wake them doing lawn care! How considerate! Thus far, we are so lucky to have such great neighbors.
Preston had a rough go right when we moved in. Crabby, fussy, and not eating led me to believe an ear infection again, and last week a the doctor, I was right. Then on Sunday- he woke up with a bright pink eye- so I called the doctor on call and he was put on eye drops. We are still on his antibiotic for his ears, and now with drops three times a day until Sunday, he isn't liking me so much :)
We are excited to have some friends over Saturday (hoping it doesn't rain) to grill out, swim, and enjoy some adult beverages. Our friends we met in Greenfield are coming up for the afternoon (they have 2 young daughters, Hannah and Mollie) and we invited the neighbors from across the street  over with the 1 year old, Olivia. Preston is going to have to hold his own with all these little girls!
