Planes and Rockets

When Aria spent the weekend with her Grandparents and Felipe/family, we picked something a little special to do with Emmett. He loooooves planes and helicopters, so how perfect is going to the Air and Space museum? He held up for 1.5 hrs running around the entire place. He really got into it.



I guess a plane with teeth is a little scary :-)


Is it a plane or a rocket?

Earlier this month, cousin Felipe and family came down for a visit and stayed at Grandma and Grandpa's. Aria had some special bonding time when she stayed 2 nights with all of them, but without us. They both are growing up so much and it's fun to see them play together. One of the mornings when both Aria and Felipe where awake before the adults, they went downstairs to play together :-) So cute!

Cousins!

It's hard to take a picture of 3 moving targets.
Fort time!

Some weightlifting with Grandpa.

Aquarium

For a (late) Christmas present to Kevin's parents we took them to the aquarium last month. We all had a great time viewing the fish, wildlife and seeing the dolphin show!




Our favorite exhibit was the Jellies!

Outside

The weather has been so great the past couple weeks and we've spent a lot of time playing outside. To bad it got really cold again, but hopefully soon we'll have nice weather again.








6 Eyes!

It had been a little less than a year of wearing glasses when Aria was "upgraded" to bifocals. She quickly adjusted and is doing great with them. This past time she went to the eye doc they said she had almost no crossing looking at a distance. They prescribed bifocals to help with the crossing that happens when she looks up close. We are also continuing to patch 2 hours a day. So, the progress is good.

A side note: The glasses she has on are "new". Thanks to Kevin and his foresight to pay for the frame replacement plan. 2 weeks before the plan ran out, the frames needed a second replacement :-)

Great Wolf Lodge - Water Park!

Emmett was not so sure at first, but he eventually warmed up.
Aria's favorite thing was the wave pool.
Aria's one happy little girl!
Emmett enjoyed putting his hands in the fountains.
Emmett was so cute all wrapped up. He sat there so still.
All clean and almost dry!
