Spring Park Rocks!

Last week, I took the kids to nearby Spring Park. For the first time, they actually enjoyed the play equipment slightly more than the wood chips on the ground! We were there for two hours and the time flew by. I took lots of pictures of them enjoying themselves.

Visitin'

My dear friend from high school came down to meet Ian and Eleanor a few weeks ago. Kara is now the mother to two adorable boys. Her youngest, Ashland, made the trip with her. We had a very low-key weekend because the three babies were on totally opposite nap schedules.

The following weekend, Kevin and Eleanor went camping with the Penn State crowd. Ian and I weren't feeling very well, so we just hung out with friends in the neighborhood. We took a walk with Aaron and Milo and attended Isaiah's first birthday party.

Over Columbus Day weekend, we packed up the kids and the dog and went to Pittsburgh. The weather was lovely so we went to the zoo. Ian was so excited about the animals. He screamed and pointed for much of the visit. Eleanor was quite and wide-eyed.
