Field Trip

On Wednesday we got to visit the local science center with my MOMS group from church. We had a lot of fun, and could have spent more time there! As Chloe and April get older, we'll be able to stay longer than 4 hours.... :) Here are some pictures from our morning/early afternoon:

Fish!

Water!! (she LOVED this and could have stayed all day I think!)

Turtle!!! (I think this was the highlight of Chloe's trip....Water is a close #1. When I asked her what she thought she'd have fun doing at the science center, she said "dirt". ha! So, the fact that this turtle was crawling around in dirt was a big deal :) )

Thank goodness they had these aprons :)

April was there :) She slept through most of the morning in the carrier and when she woke up she rode around in the stroller, staring at everything! I think she had fun :)

Chloe sometimes pretends to skateboard in our house (by running sideways) so I was excited to show her this exhibit on skateboards :)

Spinning!

Looking tired? Time to go home for naps!

We had a blast and hope to go back again soon :)

Baby Pool

Want to guess when Baby #2 is going to arrive? Post a comment, or send me an email, with your guess and I'll add you in! As a review, here are the rules to the game (taken from Heather Deterding!): 1. Post your guess for the baby's arrival in the "comment" section. Be sure to specify both date and time of day -- either "am" or "pm". 2. Limit one guess per person, and only one entry per time slot-- no sharing! 3. Winner is determined based on time of birth. For example, if the baby is born on April 20th at 7 AM, a guess of "April 20th, AM" would be the winner. In the event that there is no entry for the correct arrival time, the next closest guess based on actual time of birth would win. 4. We will post entries on the Calendar above. Check prior entries before placing your guess! Dates not displayed on the calendar above are still up for grabs. 5. The winner will receive... bragging rights and a congratulatory post h...

Chloe at 11 months

I can hardly believe that Chloe will have her 1st birthday next month. She is getting increasingly mobile these days - her 'crawl' is getting faster and faster. She is also pulling up on anything she trusts and occasionally cruises from one place to another. If you watched the video, you have also seen that she can use the walker...but needs Dad's help on the turns :) Chloe still loves music of any kind ~ she sways back and forth when the music starts. Singing will bring her out of any temper tantrum or pout. She likes to be outside and still tries to eat rocks...something we're still slowly learning... Over Memorial Day, Chloe had quite an interest in the American flag and at the 4th of July we found that her love hadn't faded and she carried around the flag all day. She likes her new toys (nesting boxes and a "push the button, door pops open") but is still interested in some of her old ones. She likes anything with a lid and has a new fascination ...
