I decided not to take the stroller, so Z got to wear her little puppy backpack. She did not like the backpack when she was younger, so I was delighted to see that she actually liked the buckles and the puppy and wanted to wear it.
Playing hide and seek w/ mommy
"haha you found me!!"
Z w/ her puppy backpack
We went on two kiddie rides before the show, and one of the was high and spun around. Honestly I was little terrified, but Z was perfectly fine. When I told her to put her hands up, she did!
The next day we met some friends at the Children's Museum in La Habra. This was also the first day I started doing "timeouts" w/ Z by placing her in the corner for a minute (ok, more like 20 seconds) for being naughty.
The first time I did it in the morning (Z had pushed over the clothes rack,) Z didn't seem to care as she just took in the corner, not crying or fighting it.

She insisted on sitting on the chicken :0D
Loves the trampoline! x3
Busy grocery shopping
Don't forget to pay
Doing sound effect for a show
Z looked so grown up in this picture....(tears~)
Then she was a bus driver...
There was room full of taxidermy animals for the kids to touch. Z got to feel the Lions' claws (VERY sharp!)...
...so were the wolf's teeth!! ( Is that you Arbby??)
Z putting her finger tips together to signal "buggies"
Saying hi to the tarantula...and yeah Z, it is the thing that goes up the waterspout (!)
Z got timeout once at the museum (which she fought) and one more time in the restaurant bathroom during dinner. I made sure I always hug and kiss her afterward and explain to her the reason for the timeout. It seems like she's getting it (when I asked her if she wanted a timeout, she shook her head and quieted down.) Hopefully this will help her understand her boundaries better without making her feel like I'm mean or love her less~
