Fall and winter

September 5th, 2011

I’m pretty excited about fall and winter. Seems like there is a lot of fun every month. This is how it breaks down:

Sept: Weekend in Chicago, wedding and touristy fun. Can’t wait to see the girls dance at a wedding and do some fun things with the family. Also, camping with my best friend and her family. It’s been way too long since I’ve seen her!

Oct: Another camping trip – Brown County this time. Hopefully it will be beautiful fall weather at that time. It’s also our anniversary month.

Nov: Sister comes for a visit! Can not wait. Will be four days of get togethers and fun. Oh and lots of turkey eating this month as we may try to do Thanksgiving with both families.

Dec: Duh, Christmas. And don’t forget another little baby born this month. Eva will turn two on Dec. 22.

Love these photos

I found these photos that Steve took on our camera. I’m not sure what to do with them, but I love them.

Ballet and tap

September 3rd, 2011

Ella is officially signed up for a fall activity. She will start doing tap and ballet the week after next.

She is thrilled to be doing ballet again and although she didn’t even know what tap was after watching a few utube videos, she has been doing some mean tap moves around the house.

We actually had to buy some shoes for each class and there will be a recital at the end. It’s a little more serious than the Parks and Rec class we took before. No offense to them, we love their toddler classes.

So, photos to come I’m sure. Now maybe Eva needs to be enrolled in swimming this winter since she’s fearless around water …

A day at the Indy Children’s Museum

September 2nd, 2011

With school approaching and our zoo offering free admittance to the Indianapolis Children’s Museum with our membership, we decided to take a little day trip last week.

The normally 2-hour-trip took over three hours. Eva was so ready to be out of the car, so we headed right to the playscape floor so she could get out some energy.

Ella is really getting into photography. I wonder where she got that from.

Every little nook in the museum seems to have something interesting.

Ella learned a little about archaeology and even went digging at one new exhibit.

Ella loves, loves, loves carousels. Eva got a little scared though. We weren’t even on the animals that went up and down. I’m thinking the bench is more our speed.

I think Eva would like any career that involves ice cream.

The Barbie exhibit is still there for a few weeks so Ella got to try out some new fashion, while Eva danced nearby on a runway. Good day at the museum. Eva was asleep immediately after we left the parking garage.
