Thursday Evening:

So to continue the festivities of Andrew's birthday, we decided on Taco Bell for dinner, DQ for desert and to show daddy the new park we found. (as a small aside, when you haven't eaten in four days, and you're not sure if you're better or not, Taco Bell is NOT a smart choice for your first meal...)

Taco Bell is ALWAYS busy. But we finally secured provisions and ate them. And DQ now has single portion treats in their freezer section. So you can buy a "cupcake" or a slice of birthday cake. Great for us since if we buy a whole birthday cake we just have to eat it all.

At the park, Elisabeth headed straight for the trucks. She's really into driving these days.

While Davey headed for the big, six passenger truck. "Come on everybody! Let's go!"

This is the emergency escape route. There's also a little picnic area on the bed of the truck. cool.


Tinky just wants to stand these days. So here she is standing and playing with the stones on the bed of the truck. She can't quite balance to hold herself up (though she's getting better). I imagine all this standing she's doing is what made me dream she learned how to walk last night.

Daddy takes tinky down the slide. Wheeeeee!
