Back on the go…

The summer heat is seemingly giving way to some 90 degree fall days and that has re-energized me. Now, let’s not get crazy, I’m not headed to the park everyday with the kiddos yet or dusting of the double BOB stroller for my famous long walks, but I am feeling more inclined to get out of the house and have some adventures with B&B.

DFW kids are back in school, so that means many of our favorite kid-friendly haunts are back on the agenda for the Murphys!

This past Tuesday we headed to the FW Museum of Science and History for the first time.  One of my mom friends was able to get us in for free and what a treat that was.  The kids ran themselves silly.  We saw a great planetarium movie and got to participate in lots of hands-on activities.  Right up our alley.

There was the chance to spin…

A kid’s sized grocery store with lots of buttons for Bauer to push!

Bree fought tooth and nail to get this grocery cart…it was her first lesson in supply and demand.

Bauer eventually found the trains and was in heaven!

This train table was so fun….little holes to pop through to play on different parts of the track.

Another exhibit revealed the joys of the classic toy, tinkertoys, to the kids.

Bree was very pleased with her invention!

It really was a fun place to explore and so kid friendly.  But definitely only possible with the stroller!  Bauer gets faster and more defiant by the day!

Today, we headed to an oldie but goodie, Jump for Fun in Southlake.  They have Little Tykes Open Play in the morning and I just had a feeling that Bauer is finally just about the right size to really enjoy the different inflatables.

I was right on.  Bree and Bauer played as a team the whole time.  It just warms my heart when Bree calls out for Bauer to join her and vice versa.  It was so fun.  And so manageable when B&B are in the same place!  They played hard for over an hour and a half.

They chased each other silly…

And slid ’til their hearts content…

They must have gone up and down this ladder to the slides more than 50 times.

But each slide down made each climb worth it!

This face says it all!

I’m really loving my days with B&B especially on work weeks like this past one and those through the end of September.  I wouldn’t trade them for anything!

Hope everyone’s end of August is going fabulously!
