What else kept us busy this winter?
Attending the World Mogul Championships at Deer Valley. The three of us had never seen a mogul event before and it really was amazing what these people can do. Although the incredible talent was fun to watch, two of my favorite aspects of our afternoon were going on the people mover (I had no idea they existed outside of airports...so cool!) and watching Claire's face as she was in utter amazement as she boarded her very first chair lift. Priceless! As expected, it was absolutely freezing so we didn't stay long, but it was definitely worth the hassle to get up there.
Chillin' out at home in our pajamas with our hair undone and our favorite toys. This is what Claire's hair looks like when we aren't visible to the general public (below left). I'm starting to wonder if she's going to permanently hold her chin up in the air since she's so used to trying to look between the hair. :) Claire plays with her drums to music on the radio any chance she can get and Khloe runs around chasing her favorite duck all while I'm trying to watch my favorite shows on DVR. No wonder I only hear half of them and constantly wonder what the heck is going on.
Erik took a short golf trip to St. George with his friend, Koo, who has become one of Claire's favorite people. She loves saying his name in her cute toddler way...imagine the sound of a bird "cooing".
A 'V Chocolate' factory tour with my Activity Days girls. The samples were delicious and to my surprise, Claire kept the hair net on the entire time! She has grown to not mind being passed around like a doll to all of the girls. They just love her!
An afternoon at the new Museum of Natural History with my parents. It was very interesting and I wish I could have paid attention more. Claire really enjoyed the taxidermy, but wasn't so sure about the human skeletons. Claire spent half of her afternoon sitting in various parts of the building in timeout, but the most amusing event took place when Claire refused (momentarily) to walk across a glass floor, which had bones underneath it in clear view. She was so confused because she couldn't see the glass. Hilarious!
A quick dip in my parent's hot tub. Claire loves the water and I can't wait to take her swimming this summer. I hope she's as adventurous as she was last year.
Going to every library toddler class in a 20 mile radius. I swear we've been to them all. :) Besides the dancing, story time, getting a stamp on her hand, touching all sorts of reptiles, and playing on a strange dragon...Claire loves to read. I don't think there are any toddler books we haven't checked out.
More yet to come.
