Mr Roger's Neighborhood.


They had a model of Mr Roger's Neighborhood for the kids to play. I was impressed that Andrew knew who he was as I recalled he died when Andrew was about 1.

They had the BIG trolley and the the little Trolley that you could control...Jonathan liked this

A Weekend Getaway


With a 3 day weekend I figured it was time to do something with the kids that was different and fun.....With having a membership to the Buffalo Science Museum and the Zoo , they let you into other science museums and zoo's. Why not take a tript to Pittsburgh as it was not that far and has 2 museums we can use it at and a zoo.....

So we went to Pittsburgh, were it was hot and sunny...unlike the spring we have had so far.....

Now there's a DIRTY boy


Andrew went in the house as the bumble bees were out and he was "afraid" of them. Think it was more to get on the computer. Jonathan stated out and played in the dirt, mud and anything else that would get him super dirty..... night ended with a bath.

Relaxing out Back


Went shopping and came home to relax. I rarely get Slim Jim's and decided to get one today. Jonathan decided he wanted it and was calling it Hot Doggie.... I washed some of the crud from the stitches too oly for it to bleed more. oh well. The spiciness of the slim jim and little blood from the cut didn't bother him at all...

Ice Cream!!


After cleaning off their hands after the petting zoo, both looked hot and needing something cool.

Yeah I thought I would have to finish Jonathan's...nope that kid ate that entire thing before it melted.

Petting Zoo


Both of them liked being in with the animals and checking them out. Jonathan pet a bunch of them but was frightened when one had a loud voice and went BAAAAAAA too close to him...He ran away crying but other than that loved all the animals (sheep, goats, chickens)


Not just for goats to climb on. The kids like climbing too....just got to watch were you step.
