Lucy Crawls

Lucy has just started crawling in the last month. Since this was taken, she has become really fast and loves getting into things she shouldn't. It is so fun to see her grow! Time flies!

Big and Small

This post is dedicated to many contrasts of big and small....... We spent a few hours at the Washington D.C. Zoo one Saturday when we attended the Temple. There are so many fun things to do and see. It is free to go to the Zoo, however you do have to pay for parking. The boys are putting their hands in a large footprint of a dinosaur. This picture needs no explanation. When the boys first saw Night at the Museum they were terrified of the T-Rex skeleton that could move. They are a little more than a mouthful for this big guy. Another Saturday we went to the Franklin Institute Museum. They had a huge display of giant arteries that showed different stages of plaque buildup. Taylor and Cole are inside one of the healthy arteries. Healthy eating makes such a difference. The kids got a bug making kit. We had fun making them together. Thankfully many of these bugs do not naturally exist this big. These are the only insects/bugs that are welcome in our home.... ok, so the plastic kind are ok too. After the kids were in bed, I was working on cleaning the kitchen and doing the dishes. Lucy woke up and was a little fussy. Troy got her and she quieted down. Later on, when I was done in the kitchen, I came out and found this snuggly sight. I know Lucy isn't so little anymore, but she is still little. Troy is such a great father!
