The twins have a guest for a few days, Uncle George from Colorado, also known as Curious George to the twins.
There were more than two kids at the dinner table last night. Ada had filled up on crackers and olives before dinner so she was giving all her attention to Curious George.
The picture says it all. Ada chases Lucy around the house, carries her to the couch and 'loves' her. The daddies aren't worried about Lucy, they think she likes the attention because she does not try to escape or hide from Ada. This time she did not have much of a choice to get away.
The twins have been going to the Academy of Science for over two years now. When they started walking they would kind of stick to the same route each visit. But now, they are switching things up and seeing their favorite exhibits (the sting rays, coral reef and amazon aquariums) and skipping others (the African Hall and Penguins). They are also exploring and interacting with the educational exhibits. They will make great tour guides for family and friends.
The sun finally decided to show itself in San Francisco today, so after the twins got up from their nap their walk around the neighborhood turned into a walk to the ice cream parlor. Ada very much enjoyed sharing her roasted banana ice cream, she was way too busy eating her treat she could not be bothered to look up for a picture.
The Lopezjones family went to Golden Gate park to take advantage of the street closure to vehicles and let the kids go wild with their tricycles. Navi cruised at a simple speed on his tricycle,.
Ada on the other hand was a little speed racer. She loved going fast and figured out a system where she pushed her self with one foot only which made her go a lot faster.
The creativity wall. In the corner of the living room dedicated to the twins there's a wall just for them where their work can be on display.
Here was their latest. This is Ada's, "Princesa" mask (princess).
The twins got a special treat, two days with Abue! Abuelita got to see Ada and Navi swim, experience a Navi meltdown when he's dropped off at pre-school, and color with the twins, but was only allowed to use the Ada approved colors.
Daddy Quique was unable to swim this week, but he was able to take pictures and film Ada and Navi at their best.
Grandma-Annie helped out in the pool.
The twins got a very special snack this morning, on the way to the museum daddy Quique stopped at a doughnut shop and let them choose their treat of choice. Navi chose a sugar covered doughnut, the sugar went everywhere.
When told she was going to have a doughnut Ada instead wanted, "salchicha," or sausage. But once we got into the doughnut shop and she saw the sweets her tuned changed to, "cupcakes!" Ada chose a chocolate covered doughnut with sprinkles.
After a very late opening of Huntley Mill, the Lopezjones' finally made it out to camp. For breakfast one morning the twins had bagels with cream cheese, lox, and red onion.
The Rebhan family made their yearly visit and the boys had so much fun with the twins. And the daddies could not thank them enough for entertaining Ada and Navi.
At camp, there was not a lot of people out there, but few made it out for the day or just an overnight.
Both kids were happy to be back at the Scuola. Upon entering their classroom Navi ran right away to the toys, Ada dug her face in one of he dad's leg, but got over it quick.
The kids were aloud to go play outside to help make the transition easy when parents left. When goodbyes were said to Navi he ran away and continued playing somewhere else; Ada had this expression on her face as if to say, "You're leaving? Why?" Both daddies left the school without a tear from either kid.
After a day of at the playground, the Lopezjones' had sushi for lunch and the twins loved it. Their first favorite item was, well the fact that the sushi was on a boat going round and round was the main thing they liked, but the baby fried octopus was liked.
Ada loved the topiko, fish roe, and had plenty of it since it was not favored by Navi. Everyone ate plenty and was very satisfied.
