Natural History Museum

We also had to make a trip to Luke's all time favorite place. He has a mild obsession with dinosaurs right now. It's cute. It's kind of a love/hate relationship. He is slightly terrified but enthralled at the same time.

I think this might be the reason for Luke's fear/love of dinosaurs. At the museum they have "Dinosaur Encounters" where they bring out a huge T-rex, which is actually just a person dressed up - but I don't think Luke has made that connection yet. He loves it, but I think he might have given me a few scratches on my arm as he was watching and holding on to me for dear life.

After dinosaur encounters we made our way downstairs and they had a real life python. As you can see from the pictures below. Luke inched his way up closer and closer. He had started back by Jimmy and Ben but made his way up to the stage and I had to go get him before he ran up to the snake and grabbed it by the tail or something. Who knows what he would have done. I didn't want to find out.

We had ice cream after thanks to Grandma!

Then we came home and crashed!

We were at church and during the sacrament I was talking to Luke about Jesus. I told him that Jesus bled and died for us. Luke looked at me with a very concerned look and said, "Did Heavenly Father give Jesus a band-aid when he was bleeding?"

We were about to walk out the door so I told Luke to go potty. He came out of the bathroom saying, "I can't go! The batteries in my pee pee are dead!"

After Ben finished a big meal he said, "my tummy is so big and full I look like Grandpa now!" (sorry dad).

Ben pointed to a picture of the prophet and said, "That's President Monckley!"

We have a saying in our house. It's "you get what you get and you don't throw a fit!" But Ben has his own version of this. He says "you get what you WANT and you don't throw a fit!"

Jimmy said that he is allergic to babies. I asked him how he knew and he said that he gets sick when he smells them.

Ben asked me for another piece of halloween candy and I said, "Mommy is ready for the halloween candy to be gone" and Ben said, "Yea, gone in my mouth!"

We were driving past the gas station sign and Ben said, "I see a lowercase 5 on that sign."

I was talking to Jimmy about election day and asking him if his teacher voted and he said that she was "absent" that day. (I finally realized what he meant. She had just mailed in an absentee ballot.)

Ben put a whole bunch of toilet paper in the garbage and I told him that is a no, no. He said, "no it's a yes, yes!"

I tell Jimmy on a regular basis that needs to talk nicely. He yelled something across the room to me and I gave him the look that said I didn't like the tone of his voice and he said, "I was yelling nicely!"

Jimmy and I are listening to "Give Said the Little Stream" and Jimmy says "How does it talk?" I said "How does what talk?" He said, "The stream, it doesn't have a mouth, how can it talk?"
