Tellus Science Musuem

Yesterday we headed on a field trip to the Tellus Science Museum with Gwen and her kids. Diego had been counting his "sleeps" for 14 nights for the day to come. He was SOOOO excited!
I think he was expecting something more like the Children's museum with lots of toys and interactive play, but he still really loved it and so did Alexia. They loved the dinosaur exhibit and the highlight was panning for gems and digging for dinosaur fossils. They got to keep the treasures they found so it was a huge hit!

After nap time we headed outside to test Diego's remote control cars on the driveway and he loved it. On Wednesday I bought Alexia a new baby doll, stroller and crib. Since I brought her home new toys I decided to buy Diego a new remote control car so he would have something special as well. The last few days have been occupied with baby dolls and cars! So when we went out to the driveway yesterday, he was busy with his car and she was busy cuddling her baby doll.
Ricardo came home close to 6:00 so we all headed out to Blockbuster to get a movie and to pick up a pizza at Mellow Mushroom. We have been watching the Planet Earth documentaries for our family movie nights and the kids LOVE them. It is such a treat to watch videos of God's awesome creation while we celebrate being together as a family.


Notice the baby doll in hands! It goes everywhere with us!













I love how all five children are busy here!

Here too!
