We went to Sea World this weekend with both kids, yes we took Braden too, but we went around 5:00 in the afternoon, so we beat the heat. In the summer, Sea World is open until 10 PM and they have a fireworks show. Deanna had a great time!! She fed the dolphins and the sting rays. She is such a trooper because she was handling squid and fish and didn't wince or think twice, she just grabbed the "squishy" food in her hand and fed the animals. We had a great time and Braden was awesome!

Look at the squid she is holding in her hands!! She definitely had to wash her hands after handling those.

Girls Afternoon Out

Yesterday Deanna and I went to get pedicures. It was Deanna's first time getting her nails done by a professional. We have played "Beauty Shop" many times and I have painted her nails, but yesterday she went to get the real deal. She got a chance to pick out her color and of course she picked out the "Sparkly Purple" nail polish. The only draw back was that her legs were too short to sit in the spa chair, so Ms. Kim had to take her to her table and that is where she got her nails filed and painted. Deanna had so much fun and has already asked to go again. The fun has just begun!!

Braden 1 month

Thanks Tami for the amazing pictures!!

Deanna's School Picture

Miami Children's Museum

We went down to Miami to visit my family last week and we decided to take Deanna to the Miami Children's Museum.  Since Braden was born, we have been trying to juggle time with both of them and wanted this to be her special day with all of our attention devoted to her.  This was a really neat place to visit.  Deanna had the chance to be a firefighter, record her own music, pretend to be a doctor, star in a workout video, work on some arts and crafts, and then play around in the gallery.

  

Deanna had the chance to be a firefighter! She got to try on all of the gear and even drive the truck.  The truck was neat because it had a screen inside that simulated the truck driving through real traffic for a call. Not to mention the horn, of course that was a hit with the kids.

Here is that workout video that I mentioned earlier!!
