We all got up early enough on Saturday (no trouble for Andrew, but tougher for Mom and Dad) to head in to New Hope, PA and spent some time playing around at Bowman's Hill Wildflower Preserve. Andrew delighted in running around playing with sticks and leaves.
He also had great fun picking up little maple seeds and tossing them by the handful off a stone bridge into the stream below, watching them spiral down like little helicopters. He can't quite get the word for helicopter yet, although 'a-plane' is pretty close I suppose.
Carrie and I had to prevent him from diving off the stone bridge into the stream of course.
After the wildflower preserve, we headed in to New Hope and Andrew got to ride on the train! He was thrilled with the ride, and spent most of it as you see here making his train face--saying 'choo choo.'
Couldn't get him to smile for the whole ride of course because of 'choo choo,' but he certainly seemed to have a good time.
After the train ride we managed to get him through a nice lunch at a riverside restaurant before he settled in for his nap on the ride home. A great fall weekend!!
