Fun Firsts for Elizabeth and Owen

Fun firsts for the kiddos this week: Elizabeth had her first ballet/tap class and totally loved it. She was able to enjoy it with her friend Abby and they both did such a wonderful job together. Owen had his first official soccer game and scored one of the goals! You should have seen the proud look on his sweet little face. I was a total bad picture taker that day because I was way too into the game. One of the other moms actually captured his reaction after his first goal and snapped a shot. She is going to send it to me so I can share it with you later. Jeremiah is also the coach of O's team and its so fun to watch them out there together. Go Speed Racers!

Labor Day Weekend Fun

Fun times during Labor Day weekend: Spending time at the beach on a hot San Diego day and going to Disneyland on Monday because Daddy had the day off! Trying to take in every moment while our kiddos are little.Buggies was finally not afraid of any of the characters. She embraced each one with a hug and a kiss when she met them. This really was a first for her!
Can anyone guess what ride Daddy and Bugs are on?
The Boldt Family joined us for our day at Disneyland.



Owen and Elizabeth really did boogie board on their own. Elizabeth got clobbered by the waves a couple of times but just kept on tryin'!

Free Museum Day

Every first Tuesday of the month, Balboa Park opens up several of there museums to SD residents for free. We decided to venture out that day and explored the Reuben H. Fleet Science Museum and O and E's fav of the day: The Model Train Museum. (Actually, I think it really was Owen's favorite, but at this point Elizabeth LOVES everything her big brother is into so she hung in there quite well.:)) Owen did not want to leave the place and he continues to tell us how much he wants to go back. So I guess we'll be heading to Free Museum Day for a while. Its hard to tell in the pics, but we really were looking at lots of trains. It was pretty cool. But I think Elizabeth and I had seen plenty of trains after an hour . Owen could have been there all day.

Right now Owen is into being Elliot the Pirate from the Veggies Tales: "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything." In the movie, Elliot wears his eye patch above his eye, hence, Owen's patch above his eye. (in case you were wondering) He either wears the eye patch or his special Larry Boy(another Veggie Tale character) Hat everywhere we go.
