Teddy found another project... a 10 ft long fish tank that needs to be repaired! This thing is massive, but it came at the right price... FREE!
We spent this last week in LA. We got to stay at Embassy Suites which has fantastic FREE breakfast and FREE snacks every evening. Teddy was there for a class so the hotel was FREE (for us)! It was like a mini vacation on the beach. Claire decided to celebrate and leave us something to remember it by...
The La Brea tar pits were awesome! We got to see all the bones that they have dug out in LA! It was very cool and FREE for military!
Marie kept trying to duck under the ropes to get a closer look, but Pa snatched her up!
Claire started playing with her toys last week! She loves it so much that she can't stop playing with them, even when she is getting tired.
Claire can sort of sit up by herself... she topples over after a minute, but she does great!
This week we had some bird adventures. We found a bird in Marie's room! There was another one stuck in the garage overnight! We tried to get it out, but then in flew behind our refrigerator and then under our cupboards, but we got him out eventually! Marie kept shouting, 'birrr'!
We got a $1 kite and I wasn't sure how well it was going to work, but it worked great and Marie loved it! We let her hold the string by herself and she did good for a little while, but then Teddy had to chase it down the road after she let it fly away.
Marie's new milestone is the ability to do somersaults all by herself! Sometimes she will start them when she is two inches in front of the wall, but she doesn't seem to mind crashing into things... she just keeps doing them!
