Reptiles and our new stroller



I gave in before I thought I would and got a double stroller, and I love it! So far both Zach and Alice have been happy in it as well. Also, for family home evening last week we went to the Bean Museum. They were doing a program on reptiles. The legless lizard in the picture is fake but Zach was able to meet a leopard gecko, a snake and a turtle. I wish my sister Kim was there so she could have stumped the student giving the presentation by asking a tough question. Since it was only me I could think of anything to ask. I did learn why there is a legless lizard and it is not a snake. Alice just slept in the stroller the whole time.

Alice





Here are some photos I was able to take of Alice last week. Her cardigan was made by her Great-Great Grandma Alice. Her headband was made by her Grandma Johnson and her cute dress is one her cousins wore.

Artist in the Family




Zach is trying to adjust to taking naps in a toddler bed rather than his crib. Last week I tried and tried to get him to go to sleep and he would not do it. Finally after about an hour there was 15 minutes of silence. But Zach was not sleeping. He found by moving his bed he could get in the top drawer of the dresser and then decided to get out the diaper rash cream and spread it everywhere. Since it is white it blends into his bedding but it was all over. Some of you may recall sometime ago Zach tried something similar with poo. Well diaper rash cream is a lot harder to get out of clothes but since I didn't want to throw up I did take some pictures.
