May showers

This is Ismael's massive (about 10' long) train track. The motorized Thomas & Percy don't fit in the bridge & so they often need Mom to come help repair it. I'd be rich if I had a dollar for each time I've fixed it.
Another of Ismael's favorite things to do is lining up all of his cars.

Grandma Yaya came to visit for a week in May, so in came the cold & rain along with her (it hadn't rained since December!). We visited the USS Midway in San Diego, where Ismael got to sit in the cockpit of an old plane.
Here we are at Legoland on one of the new rides that we rode several times.

The day Gma Yaya left, so did the cold & clouds (I think I've seen one cloud since she left!). Ismael & I went to the new Children's Museum in San Diego. Here he is molding some clay to make a rocketship. He also got to paint a VW bug, race wooden cars, go through a maze, build a city out of pillows, "swim in the ocean", rock climb, & lots more.
