We had another busy weekend. On Saturday, we traveled to northern Kentucky, near Cincinnati, to visit the Creation Museum. We were there 3 years ago with our friend from Germany when Jude was just 2 and the other boys didn’t exist. It is a great place to visit. I especially enjoyed visiting the petting zoo where I got to introduce my boys to my old friends, Zonkey (half zebra, half donkey) and Zorse (half zebra, half horse). Jude got to ride a camel with one hump and to hold a really long snake. Levi was terrified when he first saw the animatronic dinosaurs in the museum. Later in the day he got braver and said, “bwoom, bwoom” while making shooting motions at the dinosaurs. After the creation museum, we went to the hotel for some swimming. Andy nailed it when he described Jude as “clingy” and Levi as a “dare devil.” Asher takes after Levi and loves the water. I didn’t put him in his suit since he was sleeping in his car seat when we arrived at the pool, but he kept trying to jump in the pool, fully clothed, after waking up.
On Sunday we spent the day at the Cincinnati zoo. It was supposed to one of the best in the nation.  It was nice, but not my favorite. I enjoyed seeing 2 more manatees, but was pretty surprised by how small their tank was. I wouldn’t want to be that big and crammed in a tank that small. One of the highlights was watching a Looney Tunes 3D movie, complete with squirts of water, pokes from the back of our chairs and stuff thrown at us at the appropriate times in the movie. Jude enjoyed it. Levi was freaked out at first but calmed down and kept his 3D glass on when Andy held him. Asher enjoyed it, but wouldn’t wear the glasses.
At returning back to Jill’s House, I went to work packing. We’re so excited to be heading home soon!Â
