Easter - coloring eggs

We colored eggs on Easter morning. This was Arman's first time coloring eggs and he had a blast.

Persian New Year Celebration

We celebrated Norooz at the Atlas in downtown Minneapolis last weekend. Arman and I posed by the haft seen.

You can't have a party with Persians and not dance!

A DAY AT THE SCIENCE MUSEUM

Arman visited the Science Museum of St. Paul for the first time and had an absolute blast. Below you will see Arman's adventures throughout the museum. The first picture is Arman checking out an archealogical dig. It reminds me a bit of the movie "Night at the Museum"!
This was Arman's favorite part of the entire musuem. The ducks, fish and turtles were a big hit!
In this picture, Arman is learning how when you add more gas, the flames grow higher!! There was a lot of laughter at this particular spot. (and a lot of "Fire Fire" which reminded me of Beavis and Butthead...oy!)
Another favorite was the Cartoon Network exhibit. Arman got to actually create his own cartoon character...we'll call it "Mr. Scribble".

Playing with scissors!

Last weekend, Arman and I headed out to buy some new craft items. One of the things we bought was a new pair of kid friendly scissors! They are actually meant for a three year old, but I think Arman does really well with them. Below you will find pictures of Arman cutting his first piece of paper!

I don't know who touched this blog

But someone added a Brittany Spears song to my playlist and I can't get it off. I am sorry...so very sorry.
I know Arman would not be happy knowing that this song was added.
Please join us soon for our next post...hopefully sans Brittany.
