After having another successful (no being “that baby” on the airplane) trip to Minnesota, Mike and I are wondering when our good “flyer” is going to give us a run for our money. He in fact was awake all but the last 20 minutes of this flight, talking, looking at books and out the window, looking at the people who would pay attention to him.
Once we got to the Laschen’s house he was ready to go. He took his 30 minute cat nap as a recharge and was ready to play.
Mike and his dad got up early to head to Kinnikinnick River to fish. Mike didn’t catch anything but his dad caught a brown trout and 2 small mouth bass.
Thomas and I spent the morning and early afternoon with Tiffany and her kiddos, Ben and Hallie. I was so excited to have Thomas play with these two and thought it was going to be great….it was great but you will notice a theme in the pictures “Thomas with not gentle and sticky hands.” Hopefully the next time we see them Thomas will have learned a little more and Ben and Hallie aren’t afraid of him stealing their stuff from this trip
The kiddos had a great time playing with the water tables, in the shopping center, yard, kitchen, and building in several of the rooms.
Thomas also took a very big digger on our trip. It was about 3 seconds after I said to Tiff that he was going to get a bonk because he was running around without a care in the world like a crazy man. As Thomas and Hallie were standing on the truck (right above on the right) and he decided that he was big enough to get down without her or my help…then SPLAT! I saw his mouth hit the concrete and thought for sure he was missing teeth but thankfully he wasn’t. Poor guy had a fat lip, bonked nose and had some BIG tears…OUCH! After lots of snuggling and kisses he was off and running again, this time without a bonk!
I think the biggest hit for the kiddos was the Woodland Themed room. There they could crawl, run and explore ant tunnels. They played again in the water stream and they all took turns trying out a turtle shell.
One of our last pictures was finally a good one with everyone looking! What a fun day of learning and playing at the Children’s Museum!
