Children's Museum

Grandma Bobbie's on vacation! Woo-hoo! The boys and I set about monopolizing her time. Today we checked out a pass to the Children's Museum. We hadn't been there in forever. They've really improved things. The concrete floor is covered with foamy padding and the construction zone is filled with ground rubber. Bayley stayed in there for as long as Grandma listened to his stories, but Hayden didn't like the feel of the rubber on his feet. Off he went to explore the ship, doctors office, and baby forest.

Both boys enjoyed the water table best. It had slots to change the flow of the water down a slantd table. Bayley liked to dam it up. Hayden liked watching the boats (ducks, fish, cars, you name it) float down the stream.

My favorite moment came watching Bayley play in the pretend restaurant. He fed a baby doll a bottle of milk. It was so sweet. I thought back to when I was pregnant with Hayden and Courtney was practicing a developmental observation with him. She gave him a babycdoll and a bottle and asked what to do with it. He threw it across the room. He's grown up so much.
