Morrill Hall...take 2

Picture6705

We went to visit Morrill Hall today...you know, the elephant museum. Sydney was super excited to go. When we pulled up to the museum, she took one look at the giant mammoth statue outside and knew that we were there. We took the time to go through the museum today and had a lot of fun.

I was super excited to see this room with the giant DNA strand. The best part was hearing Sydney explain to Charles that DNA is "what makes me, me!"

I can't believe how much taller she looks and how much more her hair has grown...it's only been a month! Glad you will be here Saturday.

Very cute! But... where are the pictures of you, Valerie? Get Charles behind that camera so we can see YOUR cuteness too!

Most often she seeks to avoid all pictures of herself. On occassion I can fore her to get in a picture, but it is an argument I seldom win. I am sure the picture would look much better if I were behind the camera and she was in more pictures.
