Children's museum

When Ben's mom was here we took the kids to see the Houston children's museum. They had such a great time. Hailey spent lots of time playing in the mini grocery store. She loved getting to pick out all her own stuff. I spent most of my time in the "Tot Spot" with Hunter. They had so many fun things in there for little ones to explore. It was also cool because I met a lady in there from China and got to chat with her in chinese for over an hour.



This was getting frustrated when all the food turned out to be plastic. He really enjoyed looking at the chicks in the little hatchery though.

Picture time...

Have I used that as a title for one of my previous blogs??
I learned something valuable this weekend while attempting to have grandma help us take a few family pictures: it is just cruel and unusual punishment to take an explorative 14 month old and his equally curious three year old sister outside and ask them to sit still and smile for pictures. Silly me. Perhaps I will just give up and pay someone to take pictures in a studio where the children will have nowhere to run...(insert devious laughter here). Actually, it was a beautiful February day and it was fun to watch Hailey and Hunter enjoy themselves so much. We're glad Ben's mom can be here for a little bit to see it.
