Today we had a dino-filled day! we went to the academy of natural sciences, on of our favorite museums. We started off at the "outside-in" play area for the kids. FIlled with animals you can pet, this area has a sand pit, w/ canoe, bee hive (safely ensconced in glass), and full of interactive science activities. After I pet the bunny, which big guy was obsessed with talking about, but much like santa didn't actually want to touch, and a turtle, we headed down to see the butterfly exhibit! Then made a beeline for the dino area. We walked like a dinosaur and crocodile and saw some pretty cool skeletons. Following this, we went to the gift shop and read this really cool series of books called, "How do dinosaurs...?" big guy liked the one called how do dinosaurs say goodnight Which I think he picked b/c the trex is playing with a train. We ate lunch then hit the road home.
Following big guy and I both napping on the couch, we played outside on our new xmas bike. Then we had a disastrous mini trip to the jcpenny. followed by a delicious dinner at our favorite pizza place that plays movies in the kid section. They were playing "land before time," a dinosaur movie. big guy was enraptured. He ate his whole slice of white pizza without stopping. then when we could finally pull him away, we got some cookies with m&m's- a favorite. then home for bath and bed. FOllowing bath and teeth brushing, big guy chose to read his new dino book instead of his good night train book. whoa! and he kept talking about his "Din-or." so precious and a GREAT day!
