Weekend in Pittsburgh

Last Thursday, we headed to Pittsburgh to visit two sets of friends: the McGees and the Sunwabes.  We hadn't seen the McGees since I was pregnant with Tyler, so it was nice to get a little visit in with them!  Friday night is movie night at their house and we watched Mary Poppins.  Since then, Brennan has been asking me to speak like Mary Poppins with a British accent.  Sara and Kenny - thanks for having us!!
On Saturday morning, we headed over to meet baby Lenny!  Here are the cousins.  Brennan loved Lenny and wanted to hold and kiss him.
Tyler was quite intrigued by the baby as well.  He tried giving him one of his own pacifiers, pushing him in the swing and, as you can see below, he tried playing peek-a-boo with Lenny.  Unfortunately, in his excitement to see the baby, he also once hit Lenny pretty hard in the face, but thankfully, Lenny didn't get upset and neither did Paul and Ernestine!  Yikes!  It was horrifying and hysterical all at the same time.
Here is the sweet little guy.
We managed to sneak in a short visit to the Pittsburgh Children's Museum, which was awesome!  They had this cool wall that was kind of like a hamster run.  It was fully enclosed, but allowed kids to climb up two full stories.  Brennan had a blast.
The entire place was very visually appealing.  The picture below captures just one part of one room in this highly entertaining spot!  There were so many cool contraptions to climb, spin, build and explore different cause and effects.  I'm wondering if the Children's Museum in Baltimore is like this.  If so, we will have to plan to make a day trip this winter!

The photo of T playing peek a boo is especially adorable.
