The Children's Museum

So I need to stop having all these grand plans to update you about ALL the things that have been happening in the past few months, and just try to keep current now. That's my new plan. Maybe I will throw in a few other tidbits along the way too.

We had a long weekend, that was nice since Ian has been gone for a month. Unfortunately Ian had Duty on Sunday, so it was divided a little. (Duty is a 24 hour shift that they have every 8 days and they cant leave the ship.) To make yesterday a little different we went to the Imagine Children's Museum. It was great, we ended up purchasing a year membership so we can now go there as much as we want. It is fairly close to our house, so it will be fun. There was so much to do, and everyone had a great time. Inside they have 3 floors of different rooms in themes such as a farm, bank, theater, airplane, tree house, restaurant and too many other to list. On the roof is a giant playground, a life size chess set, a dinosaur digging area and other things. We were lucky the weather was pretty nice yesterday and we were able to enjoy that part too. Everyone found something they loved.

But you know your kids are growing up when you get in the car and you ask them about their favorite part, and first you have to signal them to take the headphones out of their ears, and then the classic answer, "I don't know." So here's some pictures of our adventures...

Kim,
I just saw your comment on my blog. Oh, I feel for Aspen. She will do great with her replacement when that time comes. In case you want another opinion or are still searching for surgeons, Dr. Christopher Peters at the University of Utah is amazing. He has done a lot of hip replacements on children, teens, and young adults. He also does a number of other hip surgeries-he's highly specialized with hips. Originally I went to him to see if I could be a candidate for an osteotomy, but he said a THR was the only option for me. Also, he did a few things differently that will make future revisions less complicated. Just a thought in case you're ever in Utah and want his opinion.
Oh, I wish you the very best with all of this. Tell Aspen I'm thinking of her.
