Cousins at the Museum

It's been about a year...or at least a long time since Timmy and Collin have been back to the Children's Museum together.  There was no question that they had a great time.  They covered a lot of ground during the almost 3 hours that we were there.  It's hard to say what their favorite part was.  I would say that they both really liked the water area outside because that's where we spent most of the time.  Next, I would think they liked climbing around the ... oh.... I have no idea what it was called.  See the pictures below.

Because I am racing in the morning, the plan was for Collin to spend the night with Mimi.  When we were getting ready to leave, I gave him the choice of coming with me to go to work and then home or going with Aunt Lisa to her house and then Mimi's house for the night.  He did not even hesitate to say Mimi's house.  I had to steal a kiss from the stinker when I loaded him into Aunt Lisa's car.  She said that he did not nap on the way to her house.  I thought for sure he would based on the hard play at the museum and his soccer game before that.


This is where Collin hung out most of the time.  He loved opening and shutting the doors to allow for water to build up and then flow into the next bin.  He really did not like it when another kid came up and messed up the system he had going.  He did stand there long enough to have the area to himself several times.  Surprisingly, he did not get very wet doing this other than from the other kids splashing water around him.

This is the climbing thing I cannot think of the name of.  It is three stories tall.  We are at the bottom in this picture.

Notice Timmy's food priorities are all of the cake and seafood. 

Great shot of Collin dumping the broccoli once he figured out what it was

First time for him to try the rock wall.  He has not been interested before.

He stops at this every time.  This shows the difference between solid, water and gas by how the pom poms float in the tube.

How much does Kitty weigh after eating so much?

Oh no, someone needs some oxygen!  That was how I was feeling at this point.  Time to feed Momma soon!
