Museum Day!

Sadly, our family membership to the Children's Museum is almost expired. We've more than gotten our money's worth and hope to renew it at some point after Callie is born. They just added a Curious George exhibet and we HAD to check it out. Ben is a long-time fan of George. The movie is one of his faves. He loved it so much that we ended up watching it on a near-constant loop during Emily's first weeks home. Although I now detest that movie(after watching it close to 100 times!), George will always hold a special place in our hearts because he gave Ben such a sense of normality during a difficult transition=) That movie was the one constant in his sea of change. Emily, probably from listening to it as a newborn, also loves George. I knew that whatever the exhibit consisted of, it would be a big hit and I was right. It had something for everyone. A mini-golf section that Ben enjoyed for half an hour(he's the next Tiger Woods, y'all). Emily loved exploring everything else, especially a life-sized George statue that you could pose with. We also enjoyed the typical things we love to play with--the ambulance, the water area, the tree-house and the many different ball displays.

I just adore his face in this picture. You can barely see it, but he had the hugest look of surprised delight when he opened the elevator door=)

Emily loved this bridge. She walked over it at least 15 times.

The cutest read-view ever

He looks so cute and thoughtful in these pictures. He loves watching the balls levitate.



Ben is happiest when he's in the water area.
It has everything he likes about the museum in one area: water and balls

That place looks so fun! We don't have a museum down here round these parts.
