This weekend, we decided to have some good family time. Everything we would decide to do, we'd do together. Friday, I played with the kids all day! We made train tracks, we colored, we watched shows, we danced in the family room to music! It was lots of fun. And when Daddy got home from work, the fun continued. We had "Pizza and movies" Friday! It was a nice treat, and lots of fun!
The kiddos play so well together...It really just consists of Cayden "showing" Mya how to play as she watches her big brother in amazement. She's obsessed...and I love it!
We all slept in today (Saturday), and when we woke up, we decided it would be a great day to take a family field trip to the History Museum (or as Cayden calls it, the "Dino Aseum!") So we packed up and headed out for an adventure!
Cyle and I haven't been here before (well I have, but it's been years!) and seeing as how Cayden was just there a few weeks ago with MeMe and Papa, he was an excellent tour guide! He literally pulled Cyle, as I pushed Mya in the stroller, right to the "Big, Big DINO'S!!"
He proceeded to run from one exhibit to the next, yelling out the proper names of all the dinosaurs. He's brilliant, I'm sure of it!
His next obvious favorite was the Coyotes! He'd scream "Look Daddy!! COYOTES! A-WHOOOO!"
Mya was a great little trooper! She didn't have much to say, but those big eyes were wandering from animal to animal as well!
This HUGE rhino was really the only thing that made Cayden a little bit nervous. He liked it, but just didn't want to get too close. I don't blame him!
We had some fun in the gift shop too!
Who is that scary Triceratops?!
Time for more animal fun. It made me smile to see just how fascinated Cayden was with each new species we came across. He walked from one animal to the next, independently, and studied them!
On the way out, near the exit, was the tunnel to the Planetarium. Cayden has a slight obsession with tunnels, so we HAD to walk through it! When we got to the end of the tunnel, he wasn't interested in what was on the other side, just turned around and wanted to go back out through the tunnel again!
It was a great trip - lots to see and learn! All of the walking and learning must have been hard work...this is what I found when I turned around in the car...just 5 minutes into the drive home! :-)
Big plans for tomorrow too! Daddy and Cayden are finishing up some final projects around the house so we can officially put it on the market...and Mommy and Mya are going grocery shopping! Can't beat a good family weekend!!
