Catching up

We've been doing so much, there hasn't been time to post!

Playing with water, mud, and finger paint in Sophie's back yard





Riding the carousel in Franklin Square




Playing with the kids at Wyck Spring Festival



Enjoying the carnival at the Philly bike races

Birthday time (photos courtesy of Grandpa Larry)

First present of the morning was a hit (thanks Mason and Ashton!)


And the rest of the day was pretty good too








Spent the next day at Longwood Gardens with Grandma and Grandpa

Philly summer begins

The Philadelphia Library book fair








Jett's birthday party




The train opening at the Morris Arboretum




Pools, bikes, and ice cream

Prom night

Have you ever been to a preschool prom? The invitation said "dress to impress" so we borrowed Daddy's suit






This gave Leo the confidence to approach the girls




and run with the boys









It was, as they say, a magical night

Chicago

Before we were off to Chicago, Leo's friend Lydia, who loves to take care of him, got him to eat a whole bowl of cashews ("These are healthy for you," she kept saying.)




And we got to pet the baby chickens that Rive and Asa will be raising




What's the first thing to do when you arrive in Chicago? Get a Superdawg, of course.




Then you hit the beach with Grandma







and get some good Mexican food







And after you put in an appearance at a Linguistics conference at the University of Chicago





you play, play, play!
