So, what have we been doing? Staying inside and more staying inside. Actually, since I last blogged a month ago we have done some pretty fun stuff. We went to Idaho for a super cool family reunion. Maybe I should post about that. My mom came out to visit and we repainted the Master Bedroom. Maybe I should post about that too. Next week.
When my mom came out we did go to LegoLand Discovery Center where Annika was able to relish in her current obsession...Legos. Just like your average 7 year old, um, girl? Apparently, "Barbies are boring." That's our little engineer for you, totally has her daddy's mind. Which, by the way, I was reminded of when while at LegoLand I was attempting to make a pathetic little race car for Landon and I had to ask a 10 year old boy how to keep the wheels on. Yeah, totally not my thing. Anyway...Legoland was inspiration for Annika.
LiveStrong Sporting Park
Union Station and Downtown
Taking a Master Builder Class with Grandma.
Since then we have now been consumed with two things: Legos and the Olympics. So it would only be fitting that Annika put the two together.
Last night we watched some "gym-ba-nastics" (that's how Taryn says it...I know she's 5 and I should correct her but it's quite cute) and Annika laid awake last night thinking about Lego Olympics. When she woke up this morning, this is the first thing she did:
Floor Exercise
The High Bar
This is why for their Daddy Daughter Date this weekend they will be checking out the new Lego Store that opened up in the mall near us. I did remind Dan that the American Girl store is right next door just in case Annika wants to turn girly on us. ;)
