Indianapolis Cont'd

Indianapolis

This past weekend we took a little trip to Indianapolis. Aaron hadn't been up there in a long time and I have only driven through, and had never met Aaron's cousins. It was a fantastic trip! We got to take a look at the capitol building, new six story library, the children's museum, and meet up with family and friends at some favorite restaurants! I was pleasantly surprised with the easy distance to Indy, and the town itself was smaller, cleaner, and just plain nicer than I anticipated. Nothing like Chicago...which for some reason is how I had pictured Indianapolis. The children's museum was AMAZING! Both of the children had a blast and we barely scratched the surface in the four hours we spent exploring the exhibits. One evening we got to meet Aaron's aunt, uncle and cousins for dinner at the Old Spaghetti Factory and the other evening we met up with some friends (who recently moved up there) at P.F. Chang's. Great food and excellent company, what more can your ask for?! I hope to return soon and often!

Yet another catch up post....

Now that we have two little ones running around the house it seems I don't get much time for blogging...or scrapbooking, or reading, or, or, or. LOL Motherhood is the busiest occupation I know! Levi has begun crawling, pulling up, and creeping along the furniture since my last posts. He is very determined to be a part of all our activities. He even pulls up to the stairs and bounces as if he thinks he might be able to gain enough momentum to propel himself upward. Thankfully his legs are still too short to make that first step. The lego box is another matter entirely, and I feel that one of these days he's bound to take a tumble from that perch. Rebecca is still as busy as ever, but the milestones are more subtle than in the baby years. Her ballet teacher commented that she has great cognitive skills, but has a hard time staying focused. Imagine that, my little busy bee losing focus. ;-) Without further ado...some pics....

Bedtime Rituals

Here is a video from a couple weeks back. Yes, this is a usual thing at our house, most nights its a tickle fight/cuddle time before lights out. ;-) The little ones love our "routine".
