 Someone likes yogurt.


 And someone else likes watermelon.


 Quinn walked all the way around the block yesterday holding the end of Busters leash the whole time. (it is .7miles around our block, not bad for 18 months)


 Emma was saying "bucking bronco" Buster wasnt as amused as I was.



 Quinn had surgery yesterday to open up her blocked tear duct in her left eye. She looked pretty cute in her little scrubs.  Everything went great and she is all back to normal today.


 Butts even hang out in the back of the little ones.




Its upside down, but Emma was drawing pictures of her family.  It is fun to actually see things in her pictures now instead of just scribbles.

Zoo

 This isnt at the zoo, but we've been coloring a lot more since someone is in a cast.  Quinn likes to just put the crayons back into the box instead of coloring.


 Making a picture for her cousin Ava.


 Went to the Zoo yesterday, this spider made of palm fronds is Emmas favorite and we had to come by and see it again on the way out.


 California Condor, he was checking Emma out and yes he was bigger than her.


 Cant even tell there is glass between them!

 Small playground near the elephants.
 At the polar bear spot you can crawl through an iceberg and pop your head up like a seal.

Red Cast

 Emma had to get a new cast because there was too much room in her old one.  She picked the color red this time.  She asked to wear her dinosaur shirt to school because she wanted to make all the kids happy.


 Her childrens Orthopedic office is next door to a Ronald McDonald house.  She was fasinated by him and wanted me to take her picture with him.


 Pig pen.




 It still has been pretty warm here.  This is in our frontyard, also known as the popsicle eating area.

New Childrens Museum

 We checked out a new childrens museum cast and all this week.  They had a huge chalk board.


 Emma said this was a drawing of her family.  Quinn, Emma, Mama, and Dada.


 They had an outdoor section.  The theme is trash, so you could paint this car.  My guess was the color the day before was yellow.  We got there right when they opened.



 I asked her to smile, this is what I get.





 Drum section. 

 Quinn gettting a hang of it.


The cast has not slowed her down.  She climbed these tires (remember trash theme) and was rewarded by going down via a slide.

Broken Arm, but not Broken Dreams

 Emma got a sling and xrays, here she is waiting to hear if it is broken or not.  She was coloring and goofing around making friends with everyone in the waiting room.


 Pink cast!


 After ER ice cream cone.


 Max and Emma hanging out.  Emma is snuggling in and Max didnt seem to mind too much.


 Watch out for crack around here.  Quinn is getting to her want to be naked stage and keeps tugging at her diaper and shorts.



 Max and Noah helping Grandma Barb light the candles for Grandpas birthday cake.


 Quinn testing out the Emmas big girl carseat.  She is still a little small for this one.


 A couple weekends ago our small neighborhood had a Clairemont Family Fun Day.  Emma got to go on the elephant ride and dragon ride.  Made it by about 1/4 inch.



watch out Quinn has learned how to climb.  Here she is stealing Emmas juice box.

Heat Wave

 It has been pretty hot here for San Diego.  No AC in our place so lots of days hanging out in our undies in the yard.  (mostly just Emma and Quinn)


 Our little pigpen going to work.


 This is Karen the Orangetan saying hi to Emma.



 140 year old Galapagos turtle.


 Jamaica Me Crazy, or is that just my hair?


 Quinn would get the gold for the Olympic tooth brushing event.


 Bike ride to the playground 1/2 mile down the street.


Pit stop on the way home for ice cream


 Cooling off with some frozen blueberries.



 And popsicles.  She is loving her new Tow Mater shirt too.

Sisterly love.
