Discovering

"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up."
~Pablo Picasso
A and I spent the morning at the Discovery Museum. I discovered many new things...the cafe there has a really good goat cheese and roasted vegetable panini, A is finally at the age where she likes to put on the crab costume in the Toddler Beach room, and I LOVE her wrists (see the above picture...aren't they so cute?). I have always known that I love her wrists, but I recently finished a book ("Memory Keeper's Daughter"...just an okay book) and in the book the Mom character is always wondering how her teenage boy grew up so fast. She misses his "chubby wrists" from when he was a toddler. I too, will miss my A's chubby, perfect wrists. In the meantime, I will just enjoy holding onto those chubby little hands and smothering them with lots of kisses.

I love chub. Ana was pretty dang chubby, we were just noticing today how tall she is and how she isn't really a chubby little baby anymore.

That is a great picture by the way. Cute little ladies.

If you are telling me that you have a picture of her in a crab costume and didnt post it I am MAD!!! :) Jess and I are cracking up thinking about what she must look like in a crab suit...

Ah, outings. I used to go on outings...Anyway, Sam is losing her famous chubby thighs since she's been on a diet of juice, milk, and juice for almost two weeks now.

A is adorable! It was nice to read your blog and catch up on what you all have been doing. I miss the Discovery Museum, the boys loved it. Actually, we miss all of San Francisco! Well, maybe not the bums, or the creepy fog when you're driving past the Presidio cemetery after dark! - Michiko
