Well...as the weather gets nicer, we get busier - so no posting! I can't believe I have slacked a whole month when I was doing so well! But it happens, and I am back!
So, we just went to Cleveland...got back last Tuesday. It was fun but busy...seems we (ok, maybe me) plans too much when we go anywhere and it ends up being fun but exhausting!
We went to the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame - no pictures there since they don't allow it. A big bummer. It's a little smaller than I imagined. But still neat. Probably one of the coolest things was a set/props from Pink Floyd's The Wall - it was really cool. And seeing every one's outfits and how tiny some of them were/are - especially the guys. I swear Freddie Mercury was a little boy - his stuff looked like kids stuff! And some of those guys are really short! Its like you have to be a tiny skinny short guy to be in the Hall of Fame!
The only picture you can take - of the outside!
We also went to the Cleveland Zoo. It was fun - saw some interesting things. Kangaroos, porcupines, a neat rain forest. And somehow, their elephants were really cool - very active and fun to watch! I think they were also Brooke's favorites!

The Cleveland Science Museum. Pretty cool. Had a neat display on the Great Lakes. And just fun stuff to play with!

We also went to the Christmas Story movie house and museum. It was actually pretty cool. Literally just in the middle of a neighborhood...but the story behind it and how it was recreated was neat. This house gets about 1200 people per DAY from Thanksgiving to Christmas.
I met up with 2 of my lovely online friends and their babies that are Brooke's age. We met at the Cleveland Children's Museum and then had lunch. That was very fun. I was exhausted by the day I met them and Brooke was doing a little screaming - but it was fun and I am so happy to have met them in person. Deseree has fair Raygan - she is 17 months and Deseree is pregnant and due in September, and Krystle has Lilyana - about 16 1/2 months and Krystle is pregnant and due in November. So, 3 toddlers and 3 preggos! It was fun! (Unfortunately because my camera was working on a delay - I didn't get a good shot of Miss Lily and her pretty face).
Brooke and Raygan - Brooke is in love w/ the play cars right now! This was about the only moment she let someone else play with the steering wheel!
