We headed to campus to walk Pitt one more time and then to the annual outdoor Children's Festival held right there in Oakland. I have so many memories in Oakland of working, lunches with the girls, posting flyers all over for work, being stuck in traffic, going to Institute, taking classes to finish my masters degree, getting my favorite Italian soda at the library/checking out stuff for book group, walking to and from the million pregnancy appointments I had, arriving at 2:30am to Magee in labor!, giving birth to my two sweet boys!!!, going to the gym, running, dates, couple dates, playdates in Schenly, attending the memorial service for the 3 fallen Policemen, going to Tyler's intramural football and BB games, wow, the list goes on and on. I'm sure Tyler has more too of patients, lunches with the boys, studying, waiting for and riding the bus, being on lock-down when the shooter was loose, tests, watching the world cup in some bar, picking up Jimmy Johns when I just couldn't manage to make dinner... I wonder what else he would say. He'd probably say traffic was worth mentioning again. Haha! We had many a great discussion while stuck in traffic, so I think it was worth it. We really had such a great life in Pittsburgh, pre and post kids. Gosh, getting teary again....Okay, on to the pictures.
Watching Caleb on the carousel.
It was the only seat left... but he totally liked it.
The behavioral challenges of our two-year-old are often built in the idea that he is the center of the world and everything should go his way.... Judging by the pictures so far, I think we are to blame for teaching him this!!!!
Oh, good, some more evidence that all those people really were there! We had to walk the river. Love this.
And shop the Strip.
This one might have to be framed. :)
We also did a lot of great eating which somehow didn't get photographed, at least by me. But the big events are still to come...
