Summer Fun

A day at the Museum....

What can you do in Houston for only 5 bucks??? ALOT! The Childrens Museum was so much fun. Kim & Shannon this is a must do Mommy's day out with the boys! The Tot Spot was amazing. You can sit and talk while your kiddos run freely and play, play, play. In just this one exhibit your kids get to do so much. They have giant lava lamps that with the push of a button you can change its colors. There are bridges to walk across, soft blocks to build with, mirrors to observe what your little professor is up to. I decided to be brave and take my sisters daughters with me. I also took my younger sister Kym as back up. While Trenton and I played in the Toddler world, the big kids got to play in the other 13 amazing exhibits! I will definetly be going back. Trenton even had fun going to the other exhibits. (Slide show to follow - Way to many pics) Here are some:

I'm a Big Kid now!!

Last Sunday I decided to spend some time with Trenton at Challenger Park. He had so much sun. It's amazing how brave he is now compared to 3 short months ago! He had no problem climbing to the top of the highest slide, sitting on his bottom and weeeeeee sliding down. He did this over and over. I think it took me more time getting used to him doing it alone. We played for about an hour and a half before the heat got to us! Lets see we went through 2 full 6 oz sippies of ice col water...then I knew it was time to leave. Note to all my fun Mommy friends: Crocs don't work on the gravel at this park. Be prepared to remove the shoes (like I did) or wear tennis shoes!

We had to start on the small one for Mom!

Look Mom I did it!!

Bumpy, Bumpy, Bumpy, Bumpy!!

And for my finale, I will slide from the highest one!!
