Sisters #2

This post is for those of you who requested an update for the earlier post, Sisters.

This is Beemer right around 4 months.

This is Audi at the same age.

And here are the girls together.

You can definitely see they are sisters, but Audi has started to look more like...herself.

Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'

Audi has started rolling!

I put her on her back on the floor and came back to find this.

While her achievement was exciting for me, it was not a happy thing for Audi. Tummy time is not her favorite thing and when she rolled onto her tummy she got frustrated quickly. So, I rolled her onto her back. She rolled back onto her tummy and got frustrated. The cycle repeated all afternoon until finally...

Go, Diego, Go!

When we were in Utah in March, Beemer had plans to go with my cousin and her daughter to "Disney Princesses on Ice." Unfortunately, right before the show she got sick and couldn't go. In an effort to make that up to her and to provide her with some mommy-time, Ahenobarbus got tickets for Beemer and I to go to the Go, Diego, Go Live Show on the 31st.

Beemer was so excited to dress up and "go to the theater with mom" and to have me all to herself. The show and popcorn were additional bonuses! The show was well done, but the best part for me was watching Beemer. She LOVED the whole experience and when Dora came onto stage halfway through the show I thought she was going to stop breathing because she was so excited. It was definitely a day to remember.

I didn't get any pictures at the show, but here are some of Beemer after we got home.

This is the Baby Jaguar mask that all of the kids were given to participate in the show. Beemer growls and jaguar jumps really well!

She is just so CUTE!

Bird Man

While Mom and Steve were here we also made a trip to the World Bird Sanctuary and my adorable, oops I mean studly, husband demonstrated his bird handling skills. The pictures show him holding a female Kestrel, an Eastern Screech Owl (these little owls are so cute), a Redtail Hawk, and a male Kestrel. They all have names, but Ahenobarbus will have to fill them in wehn he comments.

On a side note, doesn’t he look great with a bird on his arm? And for those of you who know him well - check out that teaching pose!

Travelblog #4

Last Sunday, before Mom and Steve flew out we took them to Laumeier Sculpture Park. We hadn't been before and wanted to check it out. It was so cool! We can't wait to go back and see more when it isn't raining! (Do you see the theme for the weather this week?)
