Denver Museum of Nature and Science

Last weekend we decided to take Sydney to the museum. We all had a great time.

We stayed here at the deer for awhile. She got to push a button to hear what they sound like.

What a big walrus!

I don't know... I think Brian may be taller than the bear.

The girls

There is a health section that is really cool. This one is where you can walk (Brian), run (Sydney) or skip (Katie) across a screen and then it shows your stride on another screen.

While Brian and Gabe were at the CU basketball game & having guy time, Sydney & I went out for some girl time. We got invited to the fundraiser for Uganda. We had a blast!

The girls went running to the festivities (I know the picture is blurry)

THE GIRLS (and no, we didn't pre color coordinate)

The girls danced the WHOLE time!

Waiting on the band...

And the band started, and the dancing continued. [Luckily I was the one with the camera and didn't get photographed dancing :-)]

I have no idea where she got her dance moves!

Lillia was quite proud of this move...

Videos: The girls dancing (Again, I did not prompt Sydney on her dance moves....)

Sledding

Melissa and Lillia showed us a new place in Boulder to sled last Friday.

Me and Sydney

We liked it so much we went back Saturday morning with Daddy.

Actually, it was a great group of friends: us, Lauren & Sophia (and Madeline) and Melissa & Lillia

We let all 3 girls ride together on the next to the last ride. As seen in the video, Brian went behind them for guidance :-)

And for the last run, it was Mommy & Daughter!

Sydney's 3rd Birthday

Sydney and her friends had cupcakes at school on her birthday. Sydney moves up to 3's class on Monday and these are some of her friends/schoolmates peeping over the door and helping to sing "Happy Birthday"
