Children's Museum

Getting up early is just what I do. Mommy does what I do....I snuck into the rocket ship and read some books.


And posed for the camera.
And then the most amazing thing all day happened.  We went to the Phoenix Children's Museum.  And UB couldn't help himeself, he jumped right into the fun!
We hopped in the tub.
And so did he!
I was jonesing for some pizza and Samantha stepped up to the oven and made it happen.
She is a great chef!
Safety first, AH!
Guess who found the rice and beans table?
While Samantha went shopping with AH.
Then it was time for some ice cream.
Super server Samantha!
Yummy!
I'll take one of those!
Mommy too.
I painted a rocket ship purple.
Samantha painted a rocket ship.
I mght have bumped into the rocket ship.  Ya think?
When I bumped into it I think I got purple paint all over my clothes.  AH to the rescue!
Then we dressed in our princess finest and went a lemon pickin'.
We pick the best lemons in town.
No joke.
Just look at this beauty.

We are super big on reading time. 
You got somethin' to say to us?
You want ice cream?  We can get behind that!
Yummy!
All aboard!
Bottoms up!
Her ice cream?  Gone.  She liked it so much that she got two cups cuz the first one had the marshmallow top fall off into the cup and she made a huge but really funny mess.
Bedtime stories- UB gave Mommy a night off!

Happy Second Birthday, Almost!

Went for pancakes at flapjacks. What breakfast is complete without a cheese face?

Chrissy is really big on drawing on people.  She pretends that she is drawing your hand, but we all know that's not really what is going on.



After a great breakfast, we went to store for pretty girl things. Chrissy got a pink purse as a souvenir and them we picked out cupcakes for her birthday celebration.

How else do you pick out cupcakes?


She's a lioness ready to snatch a cupcake out of your hand. Watch out!
Off to the park, walking!  And taking time to pet statues...
Cuz they have butterflies!

Just another day, riding dinosaurs.
On the way back Chrissy fell asleep for five minutes and then refused to nap at home. Mommy left us to go to the spa and I made a rocket ship after naps.

I told you I could be an astronaut!



Just need a bit more interior lighting and everything will be perfect.
Mommy came home from her spa field trip and asked where Chrissy was.  When she found out Chrissy was still sleeping and it was 5:30, she thought we were joking.. We weren't.   At least I learned how to play Go Fish and I rocked it!!!! 


We threw her amazing party, complete with a birthday crown for the "just woke up" girl.  All she really cared about was goldfish and her Hello Kitty plate.



And wanted nothing to do with the camera.
Neither did I, if you must know.

We might have been two grumpsters.

I only wanted cupcakes and Mommy thought I needed vegetables.  Who NEEDS vegetables?

When she saw cupcakes, she perked up a bit.


And, frankly, so did I!

Here we are singing happy birthday to Chrissy.

Bonus picture!
Someone is really excited for her cupcake. It has a candle on it!

What, you didn't believe me?

Want to see the fun live? Check out these videos!


Fancy Christina eating gold fish with chopsticks.  Ignore the whoops where I tell Aunt Helen she has a big head.  I didn't mean it and Mommy should have been taking pictures, not video!


Mommy making fun of me- it's that simple....


Happy Birthday to my sweet, sweet devilish sister who can't blow out a candle to save her life.




Then we watched Bill Nye the science guy teach us about seasons, only there was a clip on salmon reproduction that made Mommy squirm. 



Sisters celebrating birthdays!
