I swear we didn't teach it to him...
Yesterday while watching our cartoons in the morning there was a donkey on screen and Nick pointed to it and said "ass". Hmmm...we didn't teach him this, so where did he learn it?
Fast forward to today....we're watching the Wiggles this morning and there is a horse on screen. He points to it and says "ass".
Does anyone know who's been teaching my son this?

Studio Grow
Friday we met a few friends at Studio Grow in Berkeley. We had never been before and have been wanting to take Nick for quite some time. I did feel guilty though for taking him to an indoor place when it was so beautiful outside. Studio Grow is a big warehouse type building with different rooms that the kids can explore.
First we danced...
Then we played with shapes...
Then we went down the slide...
We also rode big chairs with mama...
We crawled through tunnels...
and we painted with dada....
After 3 hours of playing it was time to hit the road. 3 hours for $10 wasn't quite bad in our opinion. We did of course bring home two art works of Nick's and of course snagged dinner at the Pyramid Brewery...yummmmm!
