Too Much Fun

MJ and I started out Saturday by visiting the library to get some new books for the week. We arrived a few minutes before they opened and waited outside. MJ saw a bee and starting doing this...

Later that morning, we made a trip to the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. We went to see the Real Pirates exhibit before it closed, but ended up spending the whole day checking out all the other amazing things they have. The museum was very kid friendly and MJ especially loved dressing up as an astronaut, playing in the kids areas, petting a mastodon, and looking at the dinosaur fossils. 

It was a long fun-filled day. However, it turned out to be too much fun...

A little while after we got home, I was trying to coax MJ into eating her dinner and she just kept refusing. After a few minutes of power-struggling, MJ ran off into the living room and promptly puked on the couch. MJ has never really been sick before and so this came as a huge surprise.

MJ did start preschool this past week and probably just picked up something from the other kids (as to be expected). She has transitioned pretty well into preschool and looks forward to going most days. It's a huge change for her, so we expected more ups and downs. But, we didn't think she'd get sick so fast. 

In other news, Jared is now the Jr. Web Developer at Shompton, LLC in Denver. He started work this past Wednesday, and is really, really excited about the prospects and environment this new job has in store. 

All in all, things are starting to fall into place for us. Even the second half of our blinds finally arrived after being backordered for a month. I believe I heard our neighbors rejoicing when Jared installed the blinds in our bedroom. 

Feeling better and showing off her pirate hat from the museum.
