We just got word from Tuesday's mom, JK.
TUESDAY'S COMING HOME!
It's so unbelievable and we're so grateful.
We couldn't be happier for Tuesday and her incredible family.
There are a bunch of people doing the happy dance right now.

Bowers Kidseum
I got word today Tuesday has graduated from the PICU unit and has been moved to oncology! This is great news, she's getting better and can hang out in the less scary ward of the hospital. The PICU team all clapped for her and called her a miracle! I'm so happy for Tuesday.
Today my SIL, Karen, and I took the peeps to Bowers Kidseum. It was a great place for them. Like most moms, I'm always looking for a good place that'll be fun and interest them. More so, a place where I can let them out of the stroller without worrying about breaking anything or having people give me glaring looks. I'm also taking advantage of the fact they're under 2 years of age and usually free admission. I'm going to be really bummed when I have to start forking over the extra dollars :-)

L&B stepping down from the bridge they've crossed. They weren't sure about the floor beneath them not being steady.

A glimpse of all the cool masks and instruments the kids are encouraged to pick up and play with.

I'm amazed Luke knew how to work the rotary phone!
Kids in the Language Exploration room learning different symbols. Actually, just Maggie learning. L&B enjoyed climbing onto the big kids chairs.

Legoland
Since it's Tuesday, I wanted to start with some Tuesday news. Good news - she's doing well and gotten off the vent AND graduated from the PICU unit. For more information, please check out her mom's blog. Also, Sharlene (from our twin moms group), was able to visit Tuesday's family to help out. She has a great recap of her visit on her blog. Seems like our prayers are being answered. Yay!
This is a little late, but I did want to post about our recent trip to LEGOLAND. Unlike Disneyland last year, the kids had a great time. I think it's a combination of them being older and an ultra toddler-friendly park which helped. There was lots for them to do, touch and explore. There were even a few rides which they enjoyed, they just hated waiting in line (who doesn't).

Luke telling me he loves his Legos, bucket and all.

Our first Lego greeter, Bob the Builder.

Inside the Imagination Zone. Kids had a blast here, they had Legos pieces as big as their heads.

Luke standing in front of MiniLand USA. Its a replication of seven regions of the US, made with 20 million LEGO bricks in 1:20 scale.

Bree loved riding on the train. I think she felt like a big kid. But she cried when the ride was over and she had to get off.

Future fire truck driver.

Luke also digging the train ride.
Here's a brief video of a boat ride. I love the kids' expressions. We had fun getting the kids excited. Definitely worth a repeat visit.
btw, did you know Legos were created in Denmark? I'd just assumed it was American, isn't that presumptuous of me. Typical American :-)

Anaheim Angels vs New York Yankees
We’ve heard some good news regarding Tuesday today. It made my day to hear about it. Tuesday’s mom even posted about it on her blog. And you have to check out the great picture of Tuesday in the side bar. Always praying for you Super Tuesday!
Today we went to a baseball game. Mike’s boss asked if he was interested, and of course we were interested. It was the Anaheim Angels vs New York Yankees. It was the kids’ 3rd baseball game and I’m a little worried they might get used to seeing the game this way. Preferred parking, luxury suite and Cracker Jacks! It’s pretty awesome and the only way I could see a game with the peeps. They can run around inside the suite, I don’t have to worry about them throwing food into people’s hair and it’s shaded so I don’t have to lather on sunblock. Who am I kidding, I’m worried I might get used to this!
It was a pretty exciting game. The home team, Angels, scored 8 runs in the 8th inning. (You should be impressed here since I sound like I know what I’m talking about.) They won the game, final score 11 to 4. I enjoyed it, but I’m such a sap I feel sorry for the losing team. I don’t know what I’m going to do when the kids get involved in sports when they’re older.
Unlike the last game, this time I brought my camera.

Luke chilling on the plush seats.

Bree feeding Luke snacks in the suite.

My cute little guy and gal watching the game.

Woo hoo, another run!

This doesn't look real. It looks like we're super-imposed on the background, but really we were there.

And another run!

Luke didn't like the fireworks when the Angels scored a run. Bree didn't like the rally monkey jumping on the screen.
