Daddy ended up taking the pack from mommy after she got a little tired. I have to admit, it's a good workout and Ann claims that she did all of the uphill work. Posted by Picasa

Today we took our first hike of the year to McConnell's Mill State Park (we went there last March and loved it). Madeline had a blast... she got so excited that she wore herself out and took a snooze part way through. Auggie got some great excercise as well. Posted by Picasa

We ran into our friend Danielle on the trail. Her husband was kayaking with a group from Alfred State (he's an alum). Posted by Picasa

Too much adventure for Madie. She took a 30 minute nap on the trail. Posted by Picasa

Laura and I took the girls to Pittsburgh's "Toy Library" this past week. Most of the toys were for toddlers, but we found a few that were fun for them. Here is Emerson with one of the toys. Posted by Picasa
Madeline is suprised by the sounds the toy piano can make. Posted by Picasa
