The Children's Museum

Whew, I have been working on this post for DAYS! I was having technical difficulties......it wasn't uploading pics here and there, then I realized that some that I thought I had uploaded weren't here.....so they were out of order. And if you don't upload them in the right order it's really a pain to drag them where you want them. Then I remembered...."Oh yeah......check if I have any video of this".....and guess what??? I did......a lot actually.

This museum is like the coolest place EVER! This was the first time we had ever been there.....the kids could have stayed ALL day.....but my husband gets bored and his Mom was getting tired. We should seriously think of getting a year pass! It is kind of far away, but they have plenty of free parking and it's mostly freeway.

When we first got there it seemed kind of odd.....kind of warehouse-like. We didn't know where anything was, so it was a learning adventure : ) This was a neat light/sand table.....Carter is playing, but Cameron wanted to go on and check other things out!


They have an arts & crafts area......the kids got to paint this neat castle.....Cameron didn't care that it was pink ; ) Sidney was LOVING it!!!


The boys found this little place to crawl in that had stuffed animals in it.....they were having SO much fun throwing them around and wrestling each other.




The bike area is always a favorite place for the kids......but they have to be patient to get the trikes they really want. They get to go through this tunnel/car wash thing and around.....and they can do it again, and again, and again, and.....are you getting the picture? (Carter is the one in the black shirt/tan pants and Cameron has a blue shirt & green pants)

This is a double sided area......it kind of reminds me of plinko off the Price is Right : )



We took a break outside after we ate for the kids to run around.....and us to warm up. I don't really like this pic of me, but I love it of Cameron......such a cool dude, kickin' back. Sidney took this pic.

Sidney took this one of Roman too......he had a sweater on, so he was sitting in the shade.


The boys just barely made the cut-off for going in the toddler area. Sidney wanted to go in too, but Roman & Czeslawa managed to distract her somewhere else. (Carter)


The front of this is glass, so they can drop the balls in the top and watch them go down. (Cameron)


You can make your own garden. : ) Sidney LOVES flowers......she mostly tares them apart.....but she was good with the silk ones.


Ice Cream anyone?


Cameron was cute making us a pizza



He kept insisting on "baking" his pizza in the little fridge.



It so amazing to see their excitement and interest it everything.


Here they are at the grocery weighing area.......the most fun part??? Dumping it out!



Roman is trying to help Sidney here......but she wants to do it herself.

Cameron says "Come help me Daddy!"

Looking for some produce. (Carter)


They all took turns being the one behind the counter......but getting the shopping cart was the most coveted thing!

Ahhh......two happy boys, while big sis is ringing up some other kids at the register.

ok, they switched now

We definitely need to go back here soon.
