With Trace on his way and work being crazy I have been trying to do things with Trenton outside of our regular weekend routines. On Saturday my friend Amanda and I packed up our boys and headed to the Children’s Museum. I have been several times, but not since the huge remodel. It is even better than before. Jayden (Amanda’s son) is 1 1/2 and he has never been so it was super cute to hear him say “Oh You See” to everything!!! We had a blast and I think the boys and the Mama’s were exhausted by the time this trip was over. I definitely want to take Trenton back before school starts!
Of course as soon as we walk in Trenton is drawn to the train! He loves to turn all of the knobs and make the “chugga chugga choo choo” sound
First (and only) craft of the day
Trenton is so big these days he just ran right up to all of the stations and started playing. He loved this game of rolling the golf balls into the holes.
Trenton has a HUGE infatuation with golf balls!
Leggos! We love leggos! 
Trenton showing Jayden where all of the shapes go. I am so proud of him for knowing his shapes and also sharing with Jayden
Look Mrs. Amanda let’s go this way!
HUGE Telephone robot! He is made out of all kinds of telephones (Most of which we had as a kid)
Bob the Builder! 
He did really good at picking up the pieces of wood and fitting them in the right spots
I offered to help and of course got told “No I do it, you get hurt Mommy”
Calling Daddy from the museum to tell him about all of the fun he was having. 
My little scientist! I just think he looks so cute here! 
So something new in the museum is this GIGANTIC tower of flat disc’s suspended by cables. It starts on the 1st floor and ends on the 3rd. Or vice versa if you are Trenton. The sign said 5+, but this little dare devil climbed down the entire thing!
Obstacle Course
Steps 4-5 were blocked so no pictures taken, but at the end he did get to slide down a pole like a firefighter!
J & T working together to balance the scale (or throw all of the bean bags on the floor)
Trenton said he was “shooting a light into the Volcanos”
Handsome Jayden
Jayden and Mrs. Amanda
Since Jayden was nice enough to play on all the big kid stuff Trenton returned the favor by playing in the new Tot Spot
I think Jayden camped out in this car the majority of the time! 
Trenton had a tea party! 
Climbed on the tunnel and jumped off (guess this is why 3+ is not normally admitted)
Posing my the cow! 
Busted! I caught you in the back of a police car! Let’s hope we never see this shot when he is older!! 
The ambulance was really neat. It was equipped with all of the stuff you need to save a life. I am really impressed on how much education children get from one place!
Super excited to hear his heart! 
He immediately walked over and wanted to hear Trace! Stole my heart! 
Let’s go boys we have lives to save! 
OH NO! This is my future! First ATM Transaction
And look what he buys LOBSTER! 
What fun day would be complete without a popsicle!
If you have never been to the Children’s Museum I highly recommend it. I have never seen so much thought and creativity go into a place to benefit a child’s education. They had everything imaginable there. We plan to make several trips back!!
