How to handle leaves

First you rake them.

And then...

And then...

Train trip

We got a chance to catch up with Tyler at the Baltimore Train museum last weekend. Good news, they still have giant trains there!

This was Emma's first chance to ride on a train, so we had to ease her in slowly. I has her watch the model trains for a while so she understood what we were getting into. 

The train ride through Baltimore was awesome, even though the train didn't go as fast as I wanted it to. But it was super hero day at the museum, and Dad said the train wasn't even running. It was just being pushed by Superman. So I guess that explains it. 

Iron Man and a bunch of other super heroes were on board. I gave him a high five, but I really didn't want to shake hands with Poison Ivy when she stopped by. It just seemed like a bad idea. 

Afterwards, Tyler and I showed Emma more model trains to explain to her everything that happened. She tried to climb in a few, but she's really not that small anymore. 

Making sandwiches

It doesn't sound tasty to me, but...

Cool autumn nights

Maybe we should just stay here and watch movies all day tomorrow, just to be on the safe side.

Eating worms, again

So gross. 

Hamming it up with Pop Doyle

For a minute there, he though maybe he'd only hold either Lexi or me. Don't worry, we straightened him out. 

Monkey bars

These things ...

... are kinda ...

...exhausting.
