We enjoyed another great day with our church family at our first annual Big Splash Water Fun Day sponsored by our Preschool and Children's Department. Eleanor had a great time playing in the water with her friends.

Time for Bella's Checkup with Dr. McKay

Eleanor has become a big fan of Doc McStuffin's recently and insists on giving the family checkups quite often. It must have been time for Bella's checkup. Dr. McKay gave a thorough examination checking Bella's ears and tail, blood pressure, and heart. Dr. McKay also gave her a shot to make her feel better. When she finished with the examination she said, "Bella, you're going to be ok." I am so glad to have a doctor in the family to help keep us healthy!

Tomato time!

Eleanor has been watching and waiting patiently as her tomatoes have grown. She was finally able to pick them from the tomato plant. She loved picking the "baby tomatoes". She was so excited!

Fun times at the McWane Science Center! (pictures and movies)

On June 22, we made a trip to the McWane Science Center with Grandma and Brody. The kids had a great time exploring in the new Dora and Diego exhibit. There they helped care for stuffed animals by taking xrays, checking their temperatures, bathing and drying them, and diagnosing their illnesses. Eleanor really loved that! I overheard her say once, "Jaguar it is going to be ok". She also loved playing in Isa's Garden where she planted flowers, raked soil, and watered the plants. There were so many neat attractions in the Dora and Diego exhibit. There was also a pirate ship where the kids could count the gold coins in the treasure chest. She has a great imagination and could play like this for hours! Eleanor is all about pirates lately so she spent a lot of time there. Diego also had a rainforest for the kids to play in where they could swing from branches, rock climb, and identify rainforest plants and animals. So much fun! Of course we also enjoyed the regular exhibit halls as well. There is always so much to see and play with! The shark tank is always a favorite. Mommy and Eleanor even got to pet the back of a Bottlehead shark as it swam by us in the tank. She thought that was awesome!

Rollerskating with ATTITUDE

Eleanor got a pair of rollerskates for her birthday and absolutely loves them! Of course right now the wheels are locked and cannot spin so she is just really walking in them, but she thinks she is really something.

Mickey Mouse Puzzle (24piece) Movie

Eleanor LOVES to play with puzzles. When I asked her what she really wanted for her birthday more than anything else she said puzzles. So, she got 6 new puzzles for her birthday! Every morning since her birthday she has gone to her llittle table in our kitchen and gotten out a puzzle to play with. It's how she starts her day!
