OMSI

Last week we had the chance to go to OMSI with a colleague of mine to check out the space exhibit. The space section wasn't quite as informative as we had hoped, but the T Rex, Sampson was really amazing! It's hard to imagine something that large running around. (And to compare that to Buddy on Dinosaur Train :)
D had a great time at the science playground, especially playing with the ball tubes; particularly the one that blew air up into his face. He went into the sand box for about 5 seconds and had enough of that.
After spending too much money at the store, and getting a great book about Quantum Entanglement and some dinosaur souvieners, we went for a delish lunch of pad thai. The server at Som Tum Thai was awesome, she brought Dean his own bowl of soup when she saw he was eating mine.
After lunch we went and saw Starry nights at the planetarium, which was also interesting. Who knew there were so many satellites orbiting earth!?! D was great, I thought he'd fall asleep once the lights went out, but he fought it and stayed awake looking at the stars. All in all we had a great day!

19 Months!

At 19 Months D: Loves to play and be silly, and make mommy & daddy laugh. He climbs up on Everything, particularly the dishwasher lid (NOT good!) He is talking more, and is getting much better about saying what he wants, though he's still not super verbal. "No & Mine" though are 2 words he uses quite a lot. He is learning how to jump (sometimes he falls over backwards though). He can say the ee-i-e-i-o part of Old Macdonald. He is a huge eater, and loves whatever I have on my plate, particularly avacado "ado". He just moved into size 5 diapers, and wears mostly 24 month clothes with the occasional 2T also. He has size 6 shoes, and LOVES to run around in them.

He goes to the garage to look for daddy if he is not in the house (even if he's still at work), and likes to find the Moon when we get home from school. He loves to watch Elmo on Sesame Street, but is scared of the Elmo Live in the living room. He weighs about 25 pounds and is about 34 inches tall.

Hide and Seek

Who knew playing hide-and-seek in a box could be so much fun?!
