Beautiful weekends!

The beautiful crisp warm weather has inspired us to take a few more adventures on the weekends. We love early fall in the Mid-Atlantic! If only it made up for the horribly humid summers... Last weekend we took the kids to the Grounds for Sculpture in NJ...really cool place for adults and kids. Foster was enamored with the statue of a man cutting the hedges. We had to stay and "talk" to him for about 15 minutes and joke about why he was ignoring us!

"Excuse me sir....."

This past Friday we headed up to the local children's museum which is the perfect size for these two kids. They both found plenty to keep busy (planting gardens, weighing food, cooking, etc). Today we all hit the Philly zoo for the morning. It was the first time Molly was old enough to take in the sites, and also old enough to keep us chasing after her the entire time. She made need one of the child leashes...soon. You'll notice she has developed a bit of a binky issue....a bit obsessed as of late and tough to get it away from her. We missed our window of opportunity to wean her off of it easily!

About as close to matching outfits as I can get with these two...

Couldn't get her out of this flower!

(Dis)Organized sports

Foster and I are venturing into the big world of YMS (yardley makefield soccer) this year. Foster's first organized sport (in his 3 years) and my first time playing soccer in 14 years. His "league" plays 3 v 3 and it's the equivalent of herding cats. He was a little tentative, but he wasn't the crying kid on the field. Not bad for day one. I had my first game today in the Coed adult league. Turns out Coed means 1 girl/woman per team, so I'll be running with the big boys. Totally exhausted (and I may have trouble moving for 3-4 days) but it was lots of fun to play again!
Molly still prefers dancing to soccer (I'll try to post a video). Excuse the almost naked child and trashed living room. It's our norm for Saturday and Sunday mornings.
