Today for Mothers Day I had the bright idea that we should all go to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. It was a beautiful day and the kids liked the idea of going. We saw the otters, and the penguins and the big fish in the outer bay exhibit. Andrew loves turtles and was quite impressed by the large sea turtle. He also got a little battery powered turtle for the tub which he also took to bed with him.
Yesterday Gina spent some time working on making a potholder from a kit that she received for her birthday. She only needed a little help from me. Of course this is the kind of thing I love to do so it was hard not to help her too much.
Today was also the first time that Gina got to try out her new bike. The store had put training wheels on the bike and Gina was happy to keep them on but from watching her at preschool, I knew she could balance on the bike so we took them off.
With a little push, Gina was off riding her bike. Now she just has to learn how to use the brakes. The preschool bikes don't have brakes so she is used to dragging her feet to stop. She had a few spills but got back on each time.
