Poor Ben and Emily have really been hating this whole dark by 5:30 business. It means we rarely get to go outside to play if Hazel's doesn't get picked up before 5:00. I try to get them outside for at least half-an-hour just to run around and burn off some energy before the dinner-bath-bedtime frenzy begins. For what it's worth, they seem to love that concentrated bit of play just as much as the hours we were able to spend outside during the summer! Ben is content to just run around our court-yard, though Milly prefers to go for a walk. We decide to go for a little stroll the other evening and ended up having tons of fun!
Ben and Emmie love the fall leaves.
Ben likes to crunch them and Emily likes to pick them up.

Whenever we go for a walk, we MUST pick a pretty flower, too.
We stopped for a bit of run-around time on the steps of the college across the street from our apartment. It's like a mini-stage and they loved running, jumping and climbing up and down the stairs
All that jumping and stair-climbing led to Milly getting a boo-boo:( She was all too happy to go home after that! Ben is such a nice brother. He was more concerned about her being hurt than our play-time getting cut short! He even let her carry his beloved Softie-Pants all the way home.
