Indy!


After the big birthday celebration and a quick trip to Dallas with Ducky and Pong Pong, we hit the skies, yet again, and headed up to Indy to see my mom and stepdad (Nana and PaPa). We had a great time swimming, going to the bookstore that is within walking distance, eating yummy food and going to the awesome Indianapolis Children's Museum...twice!

Airports, Olivia's home away from home

Hitchin' a ride from PaPa at Costco

The always fun-- Nana's wheelchair. She figured out how to drive it herself this time and loved it!

Working on "cheese" for the camera on the way to the bookstore. She will now say, "cheese", but looking at the camera is still a work in progress!

A ladybug landed right on her arm on the way...how lucky and cool to see it right up close

Every time we have ever taken her to the bookstore, all she does is go read the books we already have at home...all copies of them. This photo is an example of that. This was the first time we have gone and she actually explored new books (while still reading the ones we already have, of course)!

Super cool entrance to the Indy Children's Museum. A giant dinosaur and its baby peeking in the window.

Checking out the dino tea party! We later went into the super girly Barbie exhibit (which was very cool, in my opinion) and Olivia's said, "I wanna go back and see the dinosaurs" :)

Trains!


Riding the crocodile in the Nile River in the Egypt exhibit...the last time she was on the real Nile, she was just barely in my tummy!

Checking out the sphinxes at Luxor Temple

The water table was fun, but...

not nearly as fun as the dryers right next to the water table!

There is a lot of construction going on in our neighborhood in Edmonton that we see while on our walks. She loves to look at different construction vehicles, so getting in one was very cool!

First time on a carousel. Watching it go around and around was more fun than actually being on it!

First time in the cockpit of a plane! Heading home to see Daddy just in time for her real birthday!
