We stayed in town over Labor Day weekend and had some great family time. One evening we decided to pack a picnic and head down to Falls Park to take a stroll, eat dinner and then surprise the girls with letting them play in the splash pad.
I was sitting on the blanket with Claire and Bert walked the big girls down to the water. It was just so sweet watching them stand there together and talk that I had to snap a picture of them.
Please take note of Hannah's cute expression and the lid in Claire's mouth. I brought Claire other toys to play with (chew on) but she wanted nothing to do with those. I tried to take the lid away when I was packing up our picnic and she literally went crazy. It was a MAD cry. Ha! So, she won. She kept the lid for the rest of the night ... until she dropped it in the parking lot as we were packing up the car. It's fascinating to watch her communicate with us even before she can talk. Cutie!
We packed up our picnic and headed over to the splash pad area. Unfortunately the splash pad wasn't running that night. We just kept walking and said we hadn't gotten to our "surprise" yet. :) We made a quick plan B and decided to get ice cream and everyone was happy. Emily did ask why we brought towels, but we just pretended like we didn't know what she was talking about.:)
It was a fun night!
