Fun at the Bay Area Discovery Museum

We enjoyed a sunny day at the Discovery Museum with Juliet's and Adeline's buddy, Stella. They practiced their hula hoopin' and writing too!

Hula Hoops!

Adeline's masterpiece

Here is video of Adeline singing Itsy Bitsy Spider. She sings quite a few songs and I've finally caught one on video.

Breakfast

Mike was away overnight and Juliet had a hard time getting me out of bed this morning. She kept asking me for breakfast and I kept stalling (btw Mike's being out of town is not at all what prompted the begging for breakfast/stalling; we do this every morning).

The conversation:
Juliet: "I want you to make me breakfast"
Me: "But who is going to make me breakfast?"
Juliet [laughing]: "You are."
Me: "What kind of place is this?!"
Juliet: "Home."
Me: "Ah, right you are...right you are..."

Daddies' Tummies

Baby Grace came over with her mom, Jen, to visit us and to have dinner. Juliet and I were admiring Baby Grace when I asked Juliet if she would like to add another baby to the family (but trust me, we aren't actually considering this; I just wanted to see what she would say).

The Conversation:

Me to Juliet: "Would you like to have another baby sister?"
Juliet: "Yes. But I think I'd like a baby brother.......[expression of deep thought on her brow] Mommy? Do baby boys come from daddies' tummies?"

What a logical conclusion! Incorrect, but logical nonetheless. :)

Decorating

The conversation:

Me: "Juliet, what are you doing?"
Her: "I'm decorating."

There were undies and socks on just about every flat surface in her room. When we painted her room, we took all of the pictures down and it seems that it is feeling a little barren to her in there.

Can't Blame the Kid for Trying...

Michael and I went snowboarding at Sierra on Friday, leaving our moms in charge of the girls for two days. My mom spent the night on Thursday so that we could get on the road at the crack of dawn on Friday. This is the conversation she had with Juliet that morning over breakfast:

Juliet (after finishing her breakfast): "Oh, can I have my ice cream now?"

(Juliet and I made ice cream on Thursday night and I told her she could have some for dessert the next day)

Nana: "We don't have ice cream after breakfast."

Juliet: "We do sometimes when Mommy and Daddy aren't home."

Quite the imagination! Needless to say, Nana didn't give her the ice cream...
