Two Weeks Worth of Stuff

After not blogging for over 2 weeks, I have lots of pictures to share. First are pictures from 2 Fridays ago when Jack and I met Margo and Nancy at the Magic House. We had a lot of fun. First Jack played in the sand. Next, he did some sliding.
Then he put on a smock for some water fun.

Lastly, we headed outside for lunch and fun in the outdoor play area. He and Margo play really well together. I think it is because we probably see Margo more than any other friends and so they know each other well.
On Labor Day, we finally got Jim a new bike. He really likes it and has started riding it to work. He even went mountain biking with some friends this past weekend. The weekend before he took Jack for a ride in the trailer.
Jack loves it! He and Daddy both have blue helmets to match Daddy's new blue bike.
Last week, we went to the Powder Valley Nature Center for storytime and a short nature hike. It was fun, but Jack was not interested in following directions.
He's not so sure about that deer's head.
He quickly got over it and put his head inside it.
This past Friday we went back to the Magic House for a members-only morning. Jack got to do some things we rarely do at home because Mommy thinks they are too messy: play with play dough and paint.


On Saturday, we went to the Cardinals-Cubs game with our friends Bill and April. We sat in the third row, just to the right of home plate! We were actually in the third row behind the green seats, but these were the best seats we've ever sat in (and it was for a game against the Cubs)! The weather was perfect and Jack did great. Best of all, we beat the Cubs!


This picture is after the game, but taken right in front of our seats. You can really tell how big my belly is getting in this picture. Only 3.5 weeks until my due date!

Today we went to Suson Park with my neighbor and her grandson and Nancy and Margo. I had never been there before and really liked it. We got to see horses, ponies, cows, roosters, sheep, goats, and some other animals.


The kids really liked playing on this old tractor tire.
Jack showed the others how to jump off it.
Jack and Margo ran down to the end of the horse stable. I think their favorite game is "chase."
We fed the ducks.
After looking at the animals and feeding the ducks, we went to the playground for a picnic lunch and playground fun.
I thought this picture was funny because it looks like he is about to fall off, but he doesn't.

Your belly is too cute! And I'm with you on the 'no playdoh' thing but have found that homemade playdoh cleans up much easier--it doesn't stick to things like carpet & clothes ;0) Good luck to you guys--you're getting so close!
