President's Day in DC

We spent President's Day at Baby Kate's house. The weather was perfect which allowed us to take in the great outdoors. We visited two nature centers, took multiple hikes/walks through the woods and hit some playgrounds too. Savannah ran her longest distance yet. . . 3.5 miles and Alex and I were able to sneak out for a 7 mile run too. It was one of those perfect weekends. . .

Here is a recap in pictures...

Lila masters every set of monkey bars she encounters.
I have said it before. . . Baby Kate and Lila look more like twins than Adeline and Lila do. These two are alike on the inside and out!
This hike was a favorite because there were stepping stones across the creek. They were spaced far apart and at differing heights which made them difficult to navigate. My Lila, who has an abnormally high jump and extremely long standing broad jump (we learned this during her latest PT evaluation), went full force ahead.
The other two got across nicely as well.

The girls found daffodils on the verge of blooming which made us all celebrate! An early spring is on its way.
I love these four girls. I especially love the way that Baby Kate just "fits."  I am sad that Lila corrects me and tells me to call Baby Kate, Kate.  "She isn't a baby any more Mommy.  It is just Kate now."  sniff
Speaking of "fitting," Monte is beginning to feel like family too. He is truly therapeutic for my girls.
