Picture Dump, pt. 2

Felix in the rainforest habitat

Owen on the rope bridge

James playing with the tornado maker

The boys experimenting with a fulcrum

Playing with electricity

Felix got hold of one of these balls. He would have been happy to carry it around all day, but he screamed bloody murder when we put it back

Lubrication experiments

The big Rube Goldberg machine

Also would have been content to watch this all day

They both got so wet

The Felix show

I made them dress nicely when we were out. Owen looked like this within five minutes of being home

Tired baby, but he loved his souvenir shirt

James' note to me "in French."

Barnes and Noble trip with James to get some more schoolbooks, followed by dessert

Owen's unfortunate encounter with a mud puddle

Felix, upon being told he reeked of garlic. (He eats hummus by the tubful)

The result of Felix being given my phone to play with during a wedding

Excursion to West Bay Park for puddle and eventually creekwalking

Hitting the trails for the first time as an independent walker

Getting into the stream. Felix fell in immediately

Off on a hike. We went for almost two miles, which was great for Felix's first time

He still isn't quite able to get over these without help, though

Picture Dump, pt. 1

Kids post hair-cuts getting screen time at church

Screen shot from my phone. We think Felix saw the picture of himself, said "baby," and made Siri search for it

Felix tasting ricotta cheese

Kids in a teepee at Corbett's Glen

Full teepee

"Can we wade in it?"

"Can we at least throw stuff in it?"

The handsome one

Felix the imitator

Waterfall shot

Looking for dead fish

Apple break. One of the few times Felix wasn't chasing after someone walking their dog.

He finished a bath about ten minutes before this

Easter afternoon. Owen found a dead worm and everyone wanted to see

James on the hearth at the Dudleys

In front of the ROM

Allosaurus

Stegosaurus

Pteradons

Owen staring down the Stegosaurus

Look, baby dinosaurs!

James staring down an Ankylosaurus

The leisurely pace was done once Felix was out. He just wanted to push the stroller around (with George in it) as fast as we'd let him

Felix with the T-Rex

Owen with the T-Rex. 

Enormous fish and an enormous turtle

Hard to see, but it's a Sabretooth tiger. James (and Hobbes) were impressed

A mammoth

Owen was freaked out by the mummies

"I found big checker pieces!"

Felix loved this bear

"These flowers are so big!!"

I have a great "bounce video of Owen going back and forth between the two beds, but can't get it to load into Blogger

The swimmers

The little swimmer

First, very cautious steps

The only reason Felix looks upset is because we were holding him still for a picture. As soon as I let go he went back to giggling and having a lovely time

James reading Owen a bedtime story

Owen examining bird/bat skulls

An experiment with barometric pressure
