Happy Birthday, Pete!

Yesterday was Pete's actual birthday, so she came over to our house and then we took her out to lunch and to the Washington State history museum. Mommy and Pete liked the museum but the girls found it a little boring. Mommy forgot to bring her camera (again) so here are some shots from her cell phone. They're kind of blurry because neither Alexis nor Sammi likes to sit still.

Driving a covered wagon-
Michelle, we know how much you love Sasquatch! A whole exhibit was dedicated to him/her/it- whatever.

Finally something the girls really, really liked. A model train track. I think we could have stayed there all day watching the trains go by-

Before we went out for Pete's birthday, Sammi had her 18 month check up. Yes, we were at the doctor's office Wednesday night getting her elbow fixed and then we were back Thursday morning for her check-up. She is nearing 25 pounds (24.9 pounds- it usually is in pounds & ounces but yesterday it was not). Her growth continues to be on track and she is developmentally normally. She is saying (or at least attempting) something new everyday. Alexis is so proud of her little sister when she talks!
