I helped host a baby shower for my friend Jessica last month (see her blog for pics http://www.txpencefamily.blogspot.com/2013/09/a-baby-shower-for-babiestwinsboys.html), so Tony took the girls to the Science Museum downtown. I love the pictures he took of them trying to identify the butterflies.
Emma’s so cute trying to copy her big sister!
They have stuffed animals in this section, often showing the food chain in graphic detail. My girls love it. Disney Princess movies scare them, but they seem to handle the harsh reality of the animal kingdom just fine. Go figure!
They have a pretty amazing new wing for the dinosaurs.
I thought this one was funny even though it didn’t turn out good – running from a T-Rex!
We reunited on the hammock later that afternoon.
There’s a church here with a pumpkin patch every year, and we caught their fall festival.
Picking out pumpkins!
The Pences came over that afternoon.
For my out-of-town readers, that would be the Jessica I helped throw a shower for, about 36 weeks pregnant with twins in this picture. I can’t wait to meet her boys soon!!!
When I was getting the little tables out, I was thinking about how the kid dynamic will be totally different a year from now. I realized looking at the pictures that the girls demonstrated how we will fit 2 more kids. Hopefully Anna will still fit there when the boys are big enough to sit with them.
Last week the 1st graders at Anna’s school went on a field trip to a little petting zoo place nearby. It was lots of fun & I love that I get to chaperone!
Besides the Thanksgiving – Easter time that I totally skipped, I think I’m caught up now!
