Yogurt and Old Croton Aqueduct Path

This morning, after a messy yogurt breakfast in which Clara decided she not only needed to hold the spoon, but with Mommy's help, put it in the yogurt and feed herself, Mommy took the girls on a new walk along the Old Croton Aqueduct Path towards Hastings. It was a lovely walk in the woods and Clara and Emma met their first deer.

Clara and Emma were quite tired and went down for a nap at 12:20 and to Mommy's suprise, slept until 2:15. In the afternoon, Mommy took Clara and Emma to the park by Ardsley Middle School to meet Caroline and her son Eli. It was lots of fun. Clara stood by the stroller and then stood on her own for about a minute. Emma enjoyed Eli's peaches and muffin. Clara, Emma and Eli seem to enjoy lots of snacks and it is a good thing Mommy and Caroline bring lots of stuff for them to eat. After a brief stint on the swings, it was time to head home. Clara wasn't interested in sitting in the stroller and refused to go in, so Mommy carried her and pushed Emma. This is the second time this week that Clara refuses to be put down- on Sunday, she wouldn't go in the high chair. Tonite, there is a concert in Dobbs and Mommy and Daddy can hear the pretty jazz music from the house.
