Nicco + Danielle = TLF

 Danielle came to our house yesterday to swim for a little bit and she brought a book that she made to show Nicco. It was called "GRL AND DOG AND BOY." She stapled some papers together and drew pictures of herself, her other friend Ashley, her dog Pearl, and Nicco. It was adorable.

Today we had the play date with Danielle at the Children's Museum which I showed up for a week early last Friday. When we arrived this morning, Danielle's mom told me that Danielle is convinced she and Nicco will get married. Apparently, there was a discussion at the dinner table the other night in which she expressed this conviction to her parents. Her dad told her she had plenty of time to just be friends with Nicco and lots and lots of time to decide who she wants to marry. She looked at her father, confused, and said she didn't need time, she already decided. Funny.
Here are our babies in the car on the way to the museum. Cutie pumpkin pies. I want to squish them.

The first station we went to was the electricity room. It takes 50 watts of energy to lift a little ping pong ball...Nicco and Danielle worked together, unsuccessfully, to lift it.
Then Nicco tried to do it by himself. He couldn't do it, even with the face.
Next we went to Dinosaur world. There were 4 robot dinosaurs that moved a little and growled. Nicco pretended to be scared.
The kids' favorite room was the ocean room. They liked the little aquarium:
But the submarine was their favorite by far. Lots of buttons and lights and noises and pictures.
This was a cool little rope maze. Nicco eventually removed his belt and just climbed over and under the ropes.
Captain OCD had fun with these pins...he did the whole red side, then the whole gray side.
At pet vet station they groomed, fed, weighed, and boarded all the dogs and cats.
Climbing on the rock wall... Nicco wanted ropes and a belt to be safe.
I couldn't get the next picture to rotate. It is a drum that beats to your heart. The hand things sense your pulse and the hammer beats out your heart beat. Super cool.
My flash negated the light on the bug rug...it is a light table with desert plants and critters. The bugs crawl around and you have to feed them. You push food with your shadow. Also super cool.
And, friends holding hands, leaving the museum.
It was a fun day. We'll let you know when the wedding day is. As soon as Danielle tells us.
