Lake George

We went to Lake George NY on Saturday. It is in the southernmost part of the Adirondacks and about an hour from our apartment. It is beautiful. Of course, when we went it rained, but we are now super excited to go back. We had big plans with how to spend our last remaining free days, but after moving, getting settled in, writing a long overdue memo, and all of the shopping we had to do, we couldn't face too many hours in the car. The long blue streak in a outline of the lake.

Updates

We have been trying to get ready for our move on Monday. Russ is almost done with his second year of law school. We have one year left. It seems as though we just started. I can't believe we are almost done with school. Here are some things that we have been up to:

This bird has taken residence right outside our door. We have to allocated 5 minutes extra when we leave because Megan loves her. "'Ook (Look) at Birdie!", "Say Hi to Birdie!", "Kiss the Birdie", and "Hi, Birdie". Megan has developed an unholy fear of automatic paper towel dispensers. We are working on that.
Megan likes to help. Melanie has earned the nickname "Good Sport". We really couldn't asked for a better baby. Melanie did give me several looks filled with indignation at what I put her through (I get that from her a lot). But she survived.

2 year appointment

She watched me put on makeup, and this is what happened after I turned my back for a second.
Megan had her 2 year old appointment. She is 27.5 lbs and 35 in (66th and 70th). Russ is finishing up his second year and we are getting ready to move. We are anxiously waiting for the weather to stay good so we can go outside and play, which Megan asks to do all the time.
