Hanging with G4

Okay, so I lied and I am totally back dating this post. So even though I am not posting it online until late September, I am back dating it to the time in which it occurred, which was the end of August.

Yesterday Zoe and I took a ride out to the Miller residence so that Zoe and G4 could hang out together. There were lots of new toys for her to play with and she was sure to make use of all of them. Just check out this Philadelphia Phillies/Batman/Grim Reaper/Gardener cosplay she has going on here.



She really took things to another level. Then, both G4 and Zoe wanted to ride on one of his bike/scooter contraptions. Poor George (aka G3) had to push them up and down the driveway, but it was certainly worth the effort.



Once we were done playing at the house,we decided that the kids might like to run around on the baseball field. It was a short walk over, especially since we put them in strollers, and they quickly took to the field. Along with a baseball diamond, there was also a soccer net, which seemed to catch the two of them fairly well.



As you can see, Zoe was also running around barefoot, which is typical, and accosting George from a tree, which also happens quite often. We finished the day with a meal in the nicest Wendy's I have ever been too. Along with that, we stole G4's magnetic Toy Story book, which we still need to return. Sorry about that!

Take a look in the G4 set on Flickr to see even more pictures of the day.

Election Day

When Zoe was born, Barack Obama was the president. Today the country is voting to determine who will be president for the next four years. It will still be a long time before Zoe gets to cast her own vote, but when Cheryl got home today, the two of them went around the corner to our voting center and did their civic duty. Cheryl took a couple of pictures. The girls are asleep now, and the race is still too close to call, but I assume when we get up tomorrow (hopefully not in the middle of the night) we'll know who who won. I hope everyone got out to vote today! As you can see by her sticker, Zoe did.

Riding Together for the First Time

Today my bike was finally fixed, so I picked it up from the shop before picking Zoe up from Science Club. When she saw my bike she was very excited to go for a ride. It was overcast all day, but the weather held out and it was a beautiful evening, so we rushed home, she finished all her homework, and I loaded her bike onto the car. I packed a bag with some water and a couple snacks and we made our way to Lorimer Park. Before we took off down the trail, I wanted to take a selfie, but I was so excited that I forgot my helmet, so there are two selfies. As soon as I finished the picture she took off down the path. Fortunately I was able to catch up, phone in hand, to take a few pictures as we cruised down the trail. I am a mostly competent bike rider, but trying to pay attention to her, and the trail, and keep myself upright while holding my phone was tricky. So, I decided to take some video where, for the most part, I could rest my hand on the handlebars. She is so good a...

Italy - Day 6 - Rome

Since this was our last full day in Rome, we decided to head towards Vatican City. After crossing a bridge, we made our way down the steps to follow the Tiber because Zoe wanted to explore closer to the water. Approaching the Vatican, we stopped just out of smoting range, for Cheryl's protection, before deciding that the view from the gates would suffice. From there we decided we would head out to try some very highly recommended pizza from Bonci. Zoe had to make a stop along the way for some gelato and a bathroom break, which was great because it took an hour to get our food. That being said, it was totally worth the wait! The pizza was amazing and the deep fried pasta balls were bizarre and delicious. While Cheryl was waiting, Zoe and I bought from fresh fruit and vegetables so that she would have something to eat. After a late lunch, we decided to make our way home. As we were about to cross the river, we passed Castle San Angelo and decided to make a stop. Thi...
