Just like Rocky...



Only they're coherent (most of the time) and they're not all gross and sweaty. And no, they didn't run up the steps and start doing jumping jacks (And yes, people actually do that and they even wait in line to get their picture taken with the Rocky statue.). We went to the Philadelphia Museum of Art this morning. I don't think I've been there since before Madeline was born, but Bryan tells me we brought her there when she was a baby. I honestly don't remember taking her. So either the trip was really bad and I erased it from my memory, or Bryan is confused. This was Ellie's first trip to the Philadelphia Museum of Art and either Madeline's first or second.

I realized today just how much I miss going there. Bryan and I used to go there a lot when we were dating. He'd humor me and go in all the galleries that I loved, and I'd hurry him along when we looked all the modern art that he likes. Today, Bryan happily obliged me and we went in my favorite galleries. He got us the annual family membership, so we'll be doing a repeat visit sometime soon. The girls enjoyed themselves. Madeline got into it more than Ellie did. But that's ok, she'll build up an appreciation for art in due time.
