I finally took the kids to the dinosaur museum.  It was one of the fun things to do this summer, well two days before school started we went (with a million other people) on a $2 Tuesday at Thanksgiving Point.  We had lots of fun…even if we had to wait in line, much to Kimball’s disgust, for 25 minutes to get in.  We sure enjoyed having Driel, Moriah, and Fiona join us.

The kids favorite parts included lots of sand:  the erosion table and the dino dig!

Waiting for the museum to let us in!  Sterling puts on this new squinty face to show both happy or frustrated.  He was actually quite happy being outside, he did not mind the wait.

Sterling attempts walking in the sand.  He loved playing in the dino dig site.  He has been walking for about 10 days.  He still chooses to crawl most of the time, but each day gets a bit more daring.  He also can suddenly climb onto chairs and is manuevering down the outside stairs.  He is so proud of walking that sometimes he falls because he gets too excited.  Exciting times.
