we went to the california academy of sciences last week, and evie was overwhelmed with excitement with all of the things to see. fish tank after fish tank, an albino alligator, penguins and a whole lot more. she just kept running from tank to tank yelling "wow" and squealing with delight.

i suspect we will visit often over the coming years.

the thing i found that was really interesting was that evie usually sticks very close to me in a crowd. even in moderate sized groups she becomes an extra appendage, but not this day. there was too much to see. no matter that the place was packed, she just took off every chance she got to explore. i can't say that i loved this new found independence, it means a lot more vigilance on our part, but it does feel good to see her spreading her wings a bit.
