Cara visits- April 2, 2012

Greg's college friend Cara and her two girls came for a visit.  On Sunday, we had a fun day at Federal Hill, followed by lunch at Phillips while we explored the Inner Harbor.  The girls had fun playing together at the house, too.

Taking the drum to bed, of course.
Add a few trucks and books, just in case!

The tree stump on the way to story time at the library continues to be a big hit.

Big Boy Bed- March 19, 2012

Since all of our friends with children younger than Daniel had moved their kids to beds, we decided maybe it was time for Daniel, at 3 1/3, to make the change.  He loved his crib, never trying to climb out, but rather occasional attempts to climb in.  He was running out of room in there, especially since he like his "stuff" when he sleeps.  I took from the crib:

  • seven footballs, one of which was not a small one
  • half a dozen other balls
  • a handful of matchbox cars
  • 4 stuffed Backyardigans
  • Curious George
  • Mickey Mouse
  • two stuffed Cockys
  • two blankets
  • Elmo
  • a full sized pillow
  • a Cocky Pillow Pet
  • a small panda pillow pet
  • an assortment of Maisy books
  • a Delaware Hens sock monkey
  • two wooden spoons 

Now he has even more room for his "stuff," so occasionally I sneak in and clear some out, especially the drum.  No one likes that in the middle of the night!


Cylburn Arboretum- March 18, 2012

We went exploring at Cylburn Arboretum, and it was quite beautiful.









Bamboozled- March 18, 2012

Aunt Chris gave Sarah Forbidden Island for Christmas, and it is one of our favorite games to play.  We like to call it Bamboozled, because the rules can be a little crazy at first, and it reminded us of the episode of "Friends" where Joey is auditioning to be the host for a game show, and he plays the game with Chandler and Ross.  Emily does not enjoy the game as much as the rest of us, so she took pictures while we played.
