Sleepover!


Last weekend may very well go down as one of Esme's all-time favorites. She relishes any opportunity to spend time with her cousins, but never before has she had the pleasure of their company for an entire weekend.

Though Saturday was rainy, we still managed to get outside for a bit. That was followed by pizza, bath and bed for Esme, and a screening of The Muppet Movie, complete with popcorn. Ethan was partial to Animal. While Ella appreciated Miss Piggy's karate moves.

In the morning we hit the diner for breakfast.




























Then we joined Grandma and Grandpa for a trip to Liberty Science Center. That was tons of fun, especially the IExplore Room where all three kids had a ball trying out all the different activities. Esme just loved painting...



Look how good Esme is getting with her letters! I'm sure it's all thanks to all the time Ethan and Ella spent drilling them with her.

Seriously, her much more advanced cousins did have some influence on her. Just days after their visit, Esme took her very first steps! I guess she wants to be absolutely sure that the next time she sees them she'll be able to keep up.
