The Weekend

The buttercups were gorgeous on our Fish Lake walk yesterday, I had to get a good pic of them to post here. Ruby and her cousins had a great time picking them together.


Quick shot of the girls at the end of our walk together. Love getting together every week, we usually walk between 2-3 miles.


Here we are before the "Walking with Dinosaurs" event today, Ruby and I went together and Mike stayed with Elsie. We had a great time, just the two of us.


Loved this part where the two dinosaurs ran their necks together in a loving way. We had tickets for seats in the first row, so we were able to see everything so closely. It was absolutely amazing.

Ruby wanted one of these masks so bad, she was so excited to put it on. Nearly every kiddo there was wearing one. Ruby roared at her Dad when she saw him. Pretty cute! What a great day!
Mike took Elsie to look at doggies at the different shelters while we were there, they had a lot of fun.
Elsie has been putting things into other things all the time now. Yesterday I caught her putting crayons and pencils into an old glass spice container, so amazing how she can get it perfectly lined up and into the container. She also started reaching down to pick something up and then standing back up instead of falling down to the ground. She did it several times while we were playing with Ruby's elephant game together.
Another funny thing...I give Elsie cheerios for a snack and she will take one between her little fingers and put it in her mouth. She also LOVES to eat things off the ground (EW..I know). So she noticed that one fell to the ground and I picked it up, so she would take one and drop it to the ground, bend down and pick it up to eat it. She was doing it on purpose so she could eat it off the ground. Very interesting!
She also is getting quite stubborn and will let you know when she doesn't want to do something or when something is bothering her. Her reaction is so immediate and quick...it amazes me.
