Saturday was Declan’s dinosaur birthday party. It rained the whole time. That didn’t stop Kate and Kennedy from spending the entire time on the water slide. The rest of us hung out in the garage, by the food and drink, but at the end these two warmed up to the slide and bouncer. Ice cream truck visit! This boys got their very own push pops.
It happened, but I can’t wrap my head around the fact that the boys each got their own ice cream. Babies don’t do that.
Sunday we decided to visit the academy of Natural sciences. On the way Kennedy informed us that we made a good choice, because she “is kind of dinosaurs these days.
Alexander loved this animatronic guy. He kept running back to him.
Real Sister love.
Kennedy showed a lot of interest in the bee hive. We spent a good 15 minutes looking for the queen.
Ollie’s new shirt.
Monday Kennedy went over to a friend’s house. She was gone the whole day. Lolo had her own special lunch date with daddy (more on that in a minute) but overall she was a mess without her sister. Full day school will be tough on her. I pulled out the big guns and gave her pink hair!
Kennedy has pink dipped hair too, as of that evening, but I yet to get a good pic of it. So back to the lunch date. Heads up; this is a pooping story, which should be no big surprise if you’ve known Lolo for any length of time. She poops at the most inopportune times. While they were at the restaurant, Olive Garden, they both went to the bathroom. Daddy sent Lolo in by herself. A few minutes later daddy is approached by some women, “your daughter is calling for you, she needs your help…” So daddy had to go in the ladies’ room while a hostess stood guard at the door.
Tuesday we wound up at Winterthur again. It was really crowded and Kennedy was having tummy troubles, so we didn’t stay long.
Blueberry lovers.
These guys had their 15 month this morning. Alex gained over two pounds and Oliver over four ( go, baby, go!)
Here are the numbers: can you believe Alex is so tall! Everything was pretty straightforward. The doc confirmed that they both have molars coming in. We talked about how Alexander’s legs bow and she said it is to compensate for balance. She also pointed out his feet tend inward, a leftover from his time in eutero, but said the problem would correct itself over time.
In their own world.
Officially a climber and Super proud of it!
And along those lines…. Clearly we have a new favorite game.
