Playseum

In June, I wrote a post about going to Bethesda to go to the playseum with Deanna & my friend Jen.  It was a total fail.  So, we attempted to go back, and it was DEFINITELY worth the wait!  That place is PERFECT for our kids ages.  We had such a fun time!  So fun, that we got a pretty good tantrum from Leah when it was time to go.  I guess I can measure how fun things are based on the degree of tantrum we get out of her these days...ha ha!

MO CO Fair

Cesar's flight got in at 12:38 on Tuesday morning and we didn't get home until after 3am, so I decided to get the girls out of the house on Tuesday morning to let him get some sleep.  The Montgomery County fair is in town, so we headed down there to check out the animals. We had a great morning...the girls LOVED it...until about 12:30 when Leah hit a wall and had a major meltdown when we were about as far away from the car as we could be.  So...I carried a flailing baby from one side of the fair to the other...ha ha.  Good thing Bella was such an angel. She just walked sweetly next to me as her sister kicked and screamed as hard as she could for what seemed like a mile long walk!!  Overall, it really was a great day though!!!

Daddy brought home 2 dozen beautiful roses from Ecuador and before we left for the fair he gave the girls each one to have for themselves!  They were VERY excited, as they both LOVE flowers!

My little farmers.

Extreme excitement when we saw a PINK tractor!

They had free face (or hand) painting...and they told the girls the story of Noah as they got their hands painted...

Leah was such a big girl and did it all by herself...

Other than the 8 seconds I stood up to take this picture, I had to sit and hold Bella's other hand because she was a little nervous...

Can you guess who we got on our hands?  Veggie Tales!

This was about 3 minutes after they ate a mini chocolate bar and about 5 before major meltdown :)
