We took a trip down to Albuquerque to go to the Botanic Gardens and Aquarium. Our friend Jessica gave us a behind the scenes tour of the insect area, which was really interesting. David was a little apprehensive of the fish at first, but then warmed up.


Checking his email. David wants to be just like his mom and dad.We have been going to the park more lately. David and Ben had fun climbing up and down the stairs to the slide.

David loves his push wagon.
