Arboretum
I am about a week behind in posting this but last Friday was a beautiful 78 degree day. Sure was nice before the cold front came in this week. We met up with some friends at the arboretum, one of our favorite places.
When we got there I realized that the attachment for Caroline's car seat was not in the trunk. So, for the first time, she sat in the front of the double stroller like a big girl rather than in her car seat. She does look like quite the big girl. She did great but there was no place for her to nap or really rest when she was tired because it does not recline very far.
We spent almost all of our time at the houses. They are so much fun for the kids to play in. There were not many flowers as it is kind of between plantings so it was fine by me to stay by the houses.
It is so hard to get a good picture of Katherine and Caroline. Right now Katherine does not let Caroline sit on her own very well. She still tries to hold on to her like she did when she had to support her. Now it just makes Caroline mad.
They you always have the "cheese" smile that is so fake.
It was so hard to get a good picture of Caroline because she was always interested in what was on the ground. You can see from the photos that she does have a very cute bow though. 
Before we left we went to walk through the ferns. They have little trails and the kids had been trying to walk through the flower beds all morning. Someone suggested that Katherine and Kyle hold hands. They did so without arguing. Talk about looking very grown up!

Good, Kyle's sister decided to chaperone this outing and join in on the hand holding.
Katherine took off running down the trail. Kyle had left her and I think I heard her scream something about monsters.

We tried to get a picture of the entire gang. What is a challenge with 2 kids is impossible with 5. Here we have Katherine, Caroline, Kyle, Luke and Lacey.
It was a wonderful morning spent with friends (notice there are no mommy photos). I look forward to the spring when we will be headed to the Arboretum weekly.
