Legos at the Childrens Museum

Children's Museum again

Today we went to the Children's Museum because they are doing a performance of the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe there. DG is obsessed with Narnia so it only made sense to take him. The whole family went and while we were at the show Peter played with some family friends who joined us. (Thanks again Packs!)

We got to the museum a couple hours before the show so the big kids could play some. And while we were in Science Works, we ran into some friends. What are the odds that they would be at the museum on the same day, same time and same exhibit and that we would see them. So the picture of RA in the front loader is with her favorite friend from Catholic Familyland and homeschool co-op.

The other interesting part of the day was when Daddy was on the first floor just under the balcony a child, with an oblivious (still now) parent, dropped a sippy cup right on his head. He has had a nasty headache ever since. It was a heavy, full sippy cup. DG wanted to know what would have happened if it had fallen from the 4th floor.

But still everyone had a good day.

"Me ride jaff"

So as you know we went to the Children's Museum last week. Two nights after PG - the two year old- wakes up in the middle of the night. He wanted me to rock him. I was holding him and he looks at me and says, "Me ride jaff! Tars spin round." It took me a second but I figured it out.

"Yes PG, you rode a giraffe at the museum and the star spun around on the ceiling."

"No, me ride jaff!!! (angrily)"

"Oh you want to ride the giraffe, now?"

"yah!"

"PG, the museum is sleeping, now." It was 2AM. "We will go again a different day."

"Otay Mommy."


So today we went to the children's museum.

Children's Museum

Recently we visited the Children's Museum with our friends the Packs: http://www.babypack.blogspot.com/

Everyone had fun. The museum (for those of you who aren't local) uses there large, curved staircase in the winter as a long slide. We all went down it with various forms of, "let's do it again" afterwards. My kids really enjoyed showing their old favorites to a newby -- at least new to the part we showed her. So much so that they couldn't wait for her to join us again. So this Sunday we are taking the dads.
