It's been over a month since my last update and a lot has happened in that time. So for my sake, and yours, I'm going to make this post primarily a photo update and let the photos do most of the talking.
I usually end with candids, but this time I'm going to start with them.

| The kids' new train track set (we also subsequently got a train table for it too). |
 |
| Playing with friends! |
 |
| Expert climbers! Isa (top left), Mr X (top right), friend Elana (middle). |
The kids have been enjoying preschool storytime at the library each week. Here are some pictures of them working on the various weekly crafts there.

Next up are some photos from a fun, family event held by Dad's work.

| Isa requested a pony be painted on her face. |

The following photos are from our trip to the Children's Museum in downtown Charleston. The kids had so much and did not want to leave!
Next up are a couple pictures taken at dance class.
Following are some photos from 3 different trips/events. The first couple pictures were taken during our trip to Brookgreen Gardens located in Murrells Inlet. Next are a few photos taken at the Children's Day Fest in Mt Pleasant. And last are a few photos taken at the Center for Birds of Prey in Awendaw.
