Of late...

We've been trying to get RE to sleep in his crib. He'll take a nap there, but he cries at night and I usually take him out because I don't want him to wake Amelia up. I think it will be better when he has his own room. Amelia gets so excited when he wakes up and wants to get in the crib with him. This is how I found them on a rare morning where they both slept through the night.

My good friend gave me steak for my birthday, isn't that awesome? We got a raspberry cheesecake coldstone cake for my birthday. Was it worth $25? Why yes it was.

Amelia started a little dance class at the rec center a few weeks ago. It's so cute watching the little girls run around. She did not want this picture taken, so it's all I have. They are supposed to have a little recital at the end, so hopefully I'll get some pictures there.

Enjoying a popsicle, I believe this was a 95 degree day, although we did have rain and cold this week.

Desert Museum

A few weeks ago for preschool we went on an excursion to the Desert Musuem. It's a bit of a drive, but Amelia loves the mountains so she was happy driving over the mountain and seeing the pokey-pokeys (cactus). It was very warm and RE has decided that he doesn't like the stroller anymore, but we had a great time and saw lots of desert animals. Thanks to our friends for getting us in for free!

The "train" helped us keep everyone together.

Amelia and her best friend, that she picks fights with most of the time.

Digging for fossils. These few pictures give a poor sample of what the museum is like. We saw javelinas, coyotes, bears, mountain lions, goats, tarantulas, snakes, and more. The kids had a great time!
