Teeny fingers and a giant prehistoric footprint.
Listening to Bella try to say Triceratops is hilarious.
The little kids' Discovery Place was a hit too.
It was a whim and it was fun. Yesterday, Charleen and I sat in our office and talked about taking Bella to Discovery Place. It took us all of 30 seconds to decide to take the day off, pick up Bella and my Mom and catch the light rail. We ate lunch on the Fox and Hound patio, then we meandered through Discovery Place at Bella's pace. We let her look at the things she wanted to see and play as long as she wanted. We even let her skip her nap, although we paid for that later.
It was another good time had by all.
Today Tommy and my Dad will set up a play set for Bella in our backyard. We are so excited that she is doing fun things and receiving fun toys.
I'm secretly nervous that Bella will react badly to the shift when the baby comes. We are very aware of the roller coaster ride we are about to experience and I don't want her to change. She is such a good girl. She responds to discipline, listens closely most of the time and I am so grateful for this. I am just slightly concerned that we won't be able to keep up with her one-on-one entertainment the way we currently do.

Canon's birthday is Wednesday and we have a Discovery Place visit and light rail ride in the plans. The only difference is we'll probably grab lunch at Pike's.
When we brought Elly home from the hospital, I was totally unprepared for how it would affect Canon. Alex and I cried several times over the first couple days because it was devastating to see what the shift in the family did to her. But I think for me the hardest part was being unprepared. And it seems like you are totally aware that things are going to change for everyone....especially Bella. And who knows - she might just be an angel through the whole transition.
