Oh to be a kid again

We've been having fun lately, and here are the pics to prove it.
"Look mommy! Haven't chopped my fingers off yet!" The boys were playing dress-up at the children's museum in Fayetteville NC.

More dress-up. This time as Obi-wan Kenobi and Darth Vader.

Isaac helping me with my laundry.

Isaacs first passport photo.

I had to hold him up high against a wall and duck out of sight. It wore my arms out!

Checking out the marshes of Roosevelt Island. We saw frogs and turtles and bugs bugs bugs. Everyday I hear a particular phrase countless times from Aaron:

"OOOOH, A BUG! I get a tissue! Got da bug mommy! I go frow away"

Hey, whatever makes the kid happy, right?

Project

My latest project:
SUPERHERO CAPES. DA da-da-DA!

The capes are reversible. The superman and batman cape are really one cape. Same for the blue and green one.

2 happy boys!

I Passed!!!

Here's another shameless showoff moment. I passed my grad school competencies, and got straight A's to boot! I am now officially all done with the coursework for my master's in professional counseling. On to the internship....

Philadelphia

Now that our time is limited on the east coast, we've started making a list of the remaining places we would like to see before we leave. Good ol' Philly was on the list, so we made a day of it. And here are the pictoral results...
Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence was signed (for those of you who, like me, are not great with your American history).






Liberty Bell. Sure brought up memories of National Treasure.


Logan got to sit with his old bud, Benjamin Franklin. This picture was actully taken just a few feet from where Ben Franklin was buried.


Some historic building somewhere...just a good shot of Paul.


Inside Independence Hall.

Our trip would not have been complete without a shot in front of the Rocky statue...

...as well as shot running up the stairs.






Check out those muscles! They're ripped! You'll be shouting for Adrienne when these bad boys come to town!
