First, we have Naomi, checking out her shadow at the Groundhog's Day Celebration at the Naural History Museum last weekend. It turns out we really like that place. So do Nat and Amanda, whose family we serendipitously stumbled upon in the planetarium show that day. The museum had a whole slew of groundhog and hibernation themed activities. I was only slightly saddened to realize that none of these involved napping. But the girls made little passports to track their activities throughout the day, gathering stamps as they completed each one. We dug like groundhogs in shredded newspaper, petted a skunk, saw groundhog skulls, Naomi got her face painted and we saw a presentation with Lake Erie Eddie, our hometown version of Punxatawny Phil. Eddie likes bananas.
Here is Lillian, visiting with the turtle. After Eddie's show, I took Lillian to the restroom while everyone else finished up their lunch. Upon returning, Lillian dashed back into the auditorium, arms akimbo, shouting for all the world, "I peed, everyone!!!"
I was more than slightly disappointed that the entire remaining audienc did not break into a round of applause.
Both girls trying out a future as archeologists.
This weekend, we returned to Lake Farm Park for more adventures. Lillian was the navigator. Naomi needs to learn to keep her eyes on the road.
It's baby animal season at farm park again! Here, for your viewing pleasure are pictures of insane cuteness. These lambs were born the night before we were there. They were all wobbly legs
Piglets. I'd like the one on the left, please.
And lastly, a lamb-butt. Lillian took this picture on my camera without me realizing. I happen to really like the composition.
