Dinos...and giant fish!!!
Chris, Ry, Nikki, Jeff, Keizya, Grandma and Grandpa Whiteman, and I explored the Dinosaur museum at Thanksgiving Point on Saturday. Wow...what a cool place. We had lots of new adventures...
Ry got to feel fossils of trees
and discover what "dinos" really are...not just a word mom made up.
He caught a ride on a rather slow moving dino.
Well, not quite as heavy as a dinosaur...but just as messy!!! Try putting these two together for a few hours. Ha, and just when you think you had things under control. Think again mommy!!!
Ry got to check out the ancient dino swamp. Really, it was all about seeing how far I would let him go without actually getting in the swamp.
Playing dinos with daddy. I wish I could have captured the Chris's sound effects. He makes Ry and I laugh. I think Chris had just as much fun as Ry did.
Ha ha ha...discovering his nose.
Discovering dino's nose.
Cave adventures with Nikki and Keizya.
Exploring tunnels with daddy and grandpa.
More fossils.
Feeling dino bones with Nikki.
Learning about fossils with daddy.
Oh and advancing to Paleontology with Keizya. They discovered their own dinosaur...it will be named Ryzasaur. This dino was specific to Utah and was well known for eating large amounts of food (including sand), dirtying many, many diapers, and is able to create mass destruction in 30 seconds.
This Ryzasaur is giving up the sand he previously ate. Hopefully, sand will now be excluded from his diet.The exhibit was great. We all had a lot of fun and spent about three hours refreshing our memories with fourth grade knowledge. I am sure we will be visiting the DINOS again in the future...at least for grandpa's sake!!
Whipping Cream
Mmmmm...
We made some cream for pumpkin pie over the holidays. What the heck...we gave Ry a beater. Of course he loved it!! He loved it just as much as the baby bus rides. Now that Ry is walking well and Keizya is really good at walking with something to hold on to, they are enjoying new activities, like bus rides. They are so much fun to watch and enjoy. We are constantly laughing about and discussing their new achievements and silly tactics. They (well, mostly Ry) are also learning how to share and to be "soft" with each other. I feel that this is going to be a constant battle. Yet, I am confident that we adults will prevail...somehow.

You're so on top of it Suze! Way to go! We had lots of fun at the Dino museum, I'm glad we finally got out! Oh, and thanks so much for bringing your fridge with you! You were once again, a lifesaver.
That looks so fun. I love when they get old enough to move around and really interact with kids around them.
looks like you all had a lot of fun at the museum. I haven't been there yet.
