A long time coming

Last week, after lots of failed attempts this summer, we finally got to have a playdate with the Spitzenbergers! They headed our way and we met up at the museum - Meredith was really excited to show off her favorite stuff to Anna!

The grocery store is always a hit

Jillian monopolized the ambulance. I finally caught on that she was maybe keeping other kids from their turn...I watched her block the driver's seat especially when she sensed others were ready for their turn. So, we moved on...a little unhappily, but there was plenty of other stuff to distract her.

Doctoring the baby took her mind off the ambulance

Anna and Meredith pretended to be builders, costumes and all.
Jillian and Joseph are a perfect pair - I love this picture because it looks like he is kicking her. I promise he isn't!
Meredith loves making things and trying to make them fly in the wind tunnel - she is quite serious about it!
