Pink Palace

This weekend they had a members night at the Pink Palace, we got a free summer membership and decided it would be fun to go. We had fun walking around the exhibits and meeting some people from the area, it was a fun night.

I am now 36 weeks pregnant and am getting really excited for the new baby.
We are really excited to have another little one around, it is amazing how fast they grow up. I keep looking at Alden and thinking he is getting sooo big, and acting more and more like a big kid. He loves to help with everything and sure is a joy to have around.

Ducks

This was last week on Sunday, we walked over to the pond at our place to feed the ducks. It has been fun to see the different families (of ducks) growing up over the last few months. I thought all of them were done having babies but we have a new little family with 4 ducklings.
This first picture is Alden saying "oh" just after a duck ate one of his pieces of bread.

Jumping

Alden loves jumping lately, and keeps finding higher and higher things to jump off of. Lately it has been the piano bench and his table, hopefully he will stop there... He is quite the little monkey.

Sitting and eating popsicles

This is one of our favorite things to do in the summer time.

Drive In

Last night I went to my first Drive-In movie theater. We went and saw Cars II.
Alden was so excited the whole drive to the theater, every time we told him we were going to see a movie he would start clapping his hands and smiling.
When we got there, he loved running around the parking lot, jumping on and off things in the car, and dancing to the music while we waited for the movie to start.
The movie started after the sun set, which was about 8:45. Alden lasted until about 10, which is way past his bed time, but he was happy and good for the whole thing.
The movie ended at 10:30 and you could stay for the second movie, which in this case was KungFu Panda II, Michael was all for it and probably would have lasted, I would have probably just fallen asleep part way through, but we were being eaten by bugs and Alden was sleeping in a funny way in his car seat, so we thought it was best to head home.
