Alex got to go bowling for the first time--cosmic bowling! After our friend Ehren's baby shower, they had a "bowlathon" at the local bowling alley. Alex had only done Wii bowling before, so she was excited to try the real thing! Marlon didn't feel like going, so he stayed home with Kellan and Alex and I got to have a girl's night out. Aside from the ridiculous smokey atmosphere that is so gross at bowling alleys, we had a great time! Alex loved hanging out with the adults--a bunch of our friends were there so she had plenty of people willing to help her and cheer for her!
We also took the kids up to Pittsburgh on Sunday for Storytime Live--3 adults, 4 kids in a car makes for an eventful trip, but they enjoyed the show, that featured Dora, Backyardigans, Kailan, and Wonder Pets. Check out Desiree's blog for a video of the kids on the way home (after they were on a sugar high about 15 minutes after finishing some huge choc. chip cookies!)--you may notice Kellan is quiet--he's the only one who didn't have a cookie :) and also the only child who didn't fall asleep at all at any point during the trip. Needless to say it was an early bedtime for him when we got home!
This is a funny video of Kellan that we took last night. Marlon was tossing the ball to him--and although he may be great at soccer, it doesn't look like he has a promising future as a wide receiver!
Another funny clip of Kellan (and Alex), as he thought it was funny to say "UH UH" to everything Marlon asked him...
Last video for fear of making this post way too big--here's a clip of Alex doing a little dancing to what she refers to as the "baby down down" song. I'm not sure where she's learned about the art of break dancing, but she sure seems interested in trying it as she throws it into every dance she does.
