Pittsburgh (and the rest of the East coast) had our first heat wave of the year last weekend, and we enjoyed being outside, pretending it was July. We went to a playground we don't usually visit and a nature preserve on Saturday. The toads in the pond were mating and gave us quite a show. Miles was fascinated, watching them "play leapfrog."
I got to play ultimate on Sunday with a group of women and George and the kids filled up the baby pool in the backyard. Ruby threw some sidewalk chalk into the water, which led to a new artistic endeavor and Miles' creation of "Soakman" a superhero who wears a bathing suit and paints his arms and face with wet chalk. He probably has a super power, but I've forgotten what it is.
They also decorated the doodle bug (the ride-on toy) with chalk and then washed it off in the pool, over and over. The two kids actually had a joint operation going on for a while. It was nice to see them working together.
