Children's Museum








The day after our return from Florida, Melanie and I met Suzi  Wyatt (and "Market" (Mel's interpretation of "Morgan" and Aileen)) at the Museum.  Melanie was feeling way less than fantastic, but she inSISted on going to the museum.  To the point of waking herself up coughing as we turned onto the road for the museum, saying "Mommy, I don't feel good..." with my response being "we need to go home..." and her throwing a crying fit because she needed to go to the museum so badly.

She was a mess during the trip, but as she ate more, she got some energy, and we hung out for more than two hours.  It was PACKED - we had to park a few blocks away from the parking garage.  Several times throughout the visit, I asked Melanie if she was ready to go home, since she was such a disaster.  She would cry and insist on staying.

She went on the "up and down" horsey on the carousel, and saw trains, dinosaurs, Dora & Diego, among other things.  The thing that cracks me up about the train picture above is that when I took it, I had no idea that Wyatt was in the background.  He's such a poser :)

Children's Museum




Sunday morning, after we dropped Julie & Molly at the airport for their trip to Florida, Melanie and I went to the Children's Museum.  They open at 10am, and that is the ideal time to arrive, we learned!  The museum has a new Dora & Diego exhibit, which I thought Melanie would like since she has newly become addicted (with her Daddy's help) to these two shows.  However, she wasn't really into that exhibit; instead she spent the majority of her time in the Barbie exhibit.  Yikes.  We enjoyed a couple of hours of playing before she started fading from her late night the night before.
