Brittany's Visit

My two youngest sisters have come to help out with the new baby. Brittany came first. Basically she goes out with PJ and the older kiddos every day and keeps them occupied and happy while I nurse, change, and rock baby Clarissa.
This first picture has nothing to do with the kids' adventures, but rather with the AMAZING meals we've been given this week. We received fixings for incredible sandwiches a few days ago, and here's PJ's creation. He thinks the photo belongs in a food magazine and I agree.
On to the adventures: The kids went to La Brea Tar Pits and had a great time looking at all the fossils.

No dinosaurs here, but lots of mammoths and other cool creatures.
It's crazy to me that these tar pits are in downtown LA.

PJ reading to them about the tar pits.
Not sure what this winged thing is. (I obviously have not been to see La Brea myself yet...)

TAR PITS, which are apparently smelly, and where they are currently doing excavation.

After the tar pits, they went to this nearby market for lunch.

Britt did tons of fun things with the kids all week, but I don't think there are pictures from all of their adventures. We loved having her here and we're so grateful for wonderful aunties who can come and help with this new transition.
We love you Brittany!
