Kayleigh and I at the museum.
Here I am showing Daddy the inside of the train at the museum. He didn't fit as well as I did.
This was a really cool mirror tunnel. How many Daddy's and Cassidy's can Mommy handle :)
Kayleigh's parents were very smart and told us we should do water play at the end of our trip to the museum, and they told Mom to bring me a change of clothes. It was soo much fun, we didn't want to leave that area.
I was not really sure about this boy here. The water play area had tons of things you could hook up to spray water all around. In fact I got drenched when some little boys set up the tubes to spray in my direction.
Getting my hair dry before heading to the bathroom for a change of clothes. I was completely drenched by the time we were done. I wonder why I even bothered with the smock?!?
The weekend before the museum trip I went with Mom, Aunt Jen, Ellie, Isaac, and Gramma to visit Aunt Kim, Uncle Jason, Carly and Molly. It was sooo much fun. Gramma got a little sick of hearing me say, "Be Careful Gramma" as she was driving. I yelled it from the way back of the car. I heard the rumble strips on the side of the road and I was fearful. I was just advocating for my safety, something Mom and Dad have already taught me. Don't worry Grandma I also tell mom to use two hands when driving, you're not the only one I worry about my safety with.
We took a trip to House of Bounce, and I liked it even more this time. Mom and I climbed up and down things. It was quite a workout.
Just climbing out of the bouncy house. Good thing I let Mom put pigtails in my hair.
In an effort to keep all kids happy (which is difficult when there are kids from 1 1/2 years old to 15 years old) we went bowling. It proved to be fun for everyone involved. We all played one game and it was just the right amount of time. Here I am sending my ball down the lane. I was pretty good at this bowling thing. I'm going to have to take Daddy next time to show him my skills.
Here is our whole group, we had two lanes. The adults were on one lane and the kids on the other.
All of us little kids liked to help cheer each other on. It was hard being patient when it wasn't our turn, so we got good at cheering.
This was my ball, isn't it nice. When it was all said and done I had the highest score for the kids side and Mom had the highest score for the adults side. Watch out world, the Gerken's are forces to be reckoned with.
Have I told you how much I love my mom and dad and I want to do everything they do, talk like they talk, wear what they wear, go where they go, etc. Well while Mom and Dad were making dinner one night I grabbed mom's coat and put it on (she's supposed to hang it up, right Dad!), grabbed her bag and said I'm going to work. I also like to wear Mom's shoes, take her keys and head outside to go to the store. I'm getting to be very grown-up.Well that's it for now, but we will post again soon, because we're taking more pictures now that we are playing outside in this beautiful weather!
