Have you considered going for a walk with DC in a stroller at an indoor mall? We do, when the weather is not good.

Normally a huge heat fan. But, 11wks pregnant it made me nauseous when we ran an errand earlier today, so I just woke up from a nap and told my husband I'd be doing indoor stuff today.

In about 10 minutes, I'm taking my two year old out on the back deck and let him splash around in one of those cheap plastic pools while I read a book in the shade and drink iced tea. 8)

It's quite nice in the shade especially since there is a nice breeze.

The kids discovered how much fun water balloons were. After snack time, we're headed for the playground which is nicely shaded.

MoCo public pool! For $6, we went wading in the baby pool and my 6 mo. old sat in my arms and watched all the toddlers splash around. I had fun and think she did too.

Took my 19-month-old to georgetown for a walk in the harbor--she loved it! ((works better with two adults -one pushes the stroller, the other chases the kid)

The movie Coraline is not for kids. A friend of mine saw it (an adult) and said it was scary and creepy.

I agree. DH watched Coraline with my 15yr old while I went to the pool with the little ones.

Good to know -- I just saw a review and was thinking about picking it up for my step kids. Now, not so much.

We actually took a walk (it was windy, so it wasn't THAT bad), came home got a drink of water, and then ate popcicles.
