Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium

For Valentine's weekend we took the boys to Dubuque. On our first stop we saw.....

Big fish....

Cute turtles.....which I thought I wanted a pet turtle till Tim reminded me I'd have to clean out the tank. Then I decided that wouldn't be such a good idea.

Very, very, very cute sea otters..... Which came out to play & show off for us. I fell in love with them!

The worlds LARGEST lizzard.....

And Chase got to pet a Sturgeon.

A Week With Hank

I have been VERY lucky this week to have spent the week with Hank. His babysitter is on vacation so he got to come back to his old babysitters house!!!!! I've had a lot of fun with him. He is so much fun. And his laugh & smile make it all worth while, even when I'm dead dog tired.

Here is where Hank LOVES to sleep- my bed. I can usually get him to sleep in his bed till about midnight & then he wakes up hollaring for me. I toss him in bed with me, stick his pacifier back in his mouth, & back to sleep we go.

He LOVES his jumperoo!!!!! And I love the restraining device!

This morning we were working on sitting up like a big boy. He's getting there.... but he still falls over like a weeble wobble. I absolutely adore these expressions on his face. I'm tellin' ya' once this kid starts going we're going to be in for some MAJOR trouble!
