I was changing one of Evie’s stinky diapers and she tried to sit up, I asked her to lay down and she said, “this is gross!”  I almost fell over laughing!!!

We were in the car driving to Eric’s speech therapy session and he said, “Mom, I want to sing to you.” and I said, “You do? Ok, that would be great!” and he said, “First, I sing the alphabet” then he sang the entire alphabet song! He got all the letters correct, in order and the tune was flawless. The ending part of the song “next time won’t you sing with me” was a bit garbled, but also there and in tune!  :) He has never sung, I think speech therapy is paying off!

Evie’s latest trick is to take her shoes off while strapped into her carseat and then try to open the door with her foot, she is amazingly agile and her fine motor skills are excellent, lol! Thank goodness for the child-safe locking system inside the back doors, so she has no chance of actually getting the door open while I'm driving!

Evie went into my bathroom, this is not a place she is supposed to go and she knows this. Eric saw her and yelled, “Evie, leave this room! Eeeeeevie! I say leave this room!!!! *sigh* this is hard work.”  LOL!

Evie has started sleeping on her back, two nights in a row now. :)

We went to the Sacramento Children's Museum again, this time with Kellie and her daughter, Savanna. We had to wait in a very long line, so we played at the nearby park for a while.


The park had a skateboard ramp. Even tho we didn't have a skateboard, Eric found a good use for the ramp, lol!

The park also had this amazing web area to climb around in!


Eric found some rocks to climb and noticed that the rocks had fossils in them! (whoever created the park had some sort of fossil stamp, and stamped it into the concrete rock while it was still wet.)


Evie was good at climbing too! Yikes, that girl has no fear!!! But I have enough for the both of us!!!


Down the slide from Dada's arms into Mama's arms. Wow that slide was FAST!


Finally it was time to enjoy the museum!

The museum also had Zumba for the kids, here is a video of Eric doing Zumba (click the photo to be taken to another site to watch the video)

And here is Evie doing Zumba (click the photo to be taken to another site to watch the video)

It was good that I brought a change of clothes, the museum was a lot of fun and a bit messy, lol. Into their jammies they went and then almost immediately off to dream land, lol!
