Science is cool!

Luc is quickly following in Daddy's geeky science footsteps. While at the zoo this weekend, Luc and Mommy stumbled on to Dr. Zoolittle's show in the children's zoo. Dr. Zoolittle wowed his small crowd by mixing ferric mumble mumble sulfate with something something something something to wondrous results. The two clear solutions instantly turned dark purple! Adding another something something solution broke the molecular bond and the mixture turned cloudy/clear again. Boy, did that guy have the attention of these kids now. This was magic as far as they were concerned. Dr. Zoolittle went on to demonstrate Bernoulli's Principle by knocking paper cups off kids' heads with puffs of air blown from a distance away. Luc went on to test the theory of gravity later in the day on a trampoline jumpy, also at the zoo.


Another fun weekend activity was Aunt Shanley's birthday. Luc was invited to the party where he attempted to eat a cupcake the size of his head (only managed to lick the frosting off though), played Wii, colored with Maxwell, and helped Aunt Shanley open all of her presents. He says he is practicing for his upcoming birthday.

Dear Luc,
Thanks for the help opening the presents. I just wish we had kept the cards with all the cool stuff so I knew who to thank.

Love,
Aunt Shanley
