We've been so excited to have Daddy home for a five-day Christmas vacation. Yesterday was his first day off work, and our family just hung around the house. Today, however, we decided to take a trip to the Children's Museum. The boy(s) and I have visited this museum a couple of times before with our playgroup, Pops, and Uncle Justin, and have enjoyed it so much that last time we purchased a membership with the Edwards family. This was Brett's first opportunity to come with us, though, so he was looking forward to seeing what all the fuss was about!
Kaiser absolutely loved having both of his parents while we were there. There was so much to explore with Daddy by his side...
Running the toy trolley in Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood.
Making music with the ball conveyor belt.
Got a kick out of seeing Daddy's handprint pop through the pin wall!
Watching a video about how "cwortahs" are made.
Trying to keep their balance in the tilted Gravity Room.
Writing with an LED pen in the Phosphorescent Room.
Racing cars in the Garage.
Daddy played some Christmas carols in the Curiosity Lab.
My passenger was quite content.
Shooting paper rockets in the "Whoosh!" air exhibit.
Flying the plane with Daddy.
Captain Kaiser.
"Mommy to sit in da airplane, too."
Exploring bubbles and light.
Releasing a parachute in the wind tunnel.
Making music by dropping rocks down the sides of the tube.
Our last stop -- Waterplay!
"Splash!"
Father-son plumbing project.
In the zone.
Brett had fun playing with the water, too. I think next time we'll bring him a rain jacket and boots!
After a catnap in the Bjorn, someone woke up happy!
Now that's a smile!
My sweet monkey all bundled up to go.
I think Kaiser and Porter both wore themselves out with all the fun; they've each been sound asleep for 2+ hours! Now that we've sprung for a membership, I have a feeling many more Children's Museum visits await us in 2011. Hopefully Daddy will be able to join us again!
