A Day in the City

Kevin had another interview at Goldman Sachs downtown yesterday (cross your fingers for him!) So Kylea and I decided to tag along and spend some time in the city.  I contemplated several destinations but ultimately decided that the best place for us to visit would be the Discovery Gateway Children's Museum again. 

Round two was so much fun!  Kylea was able to play with most of the exhibits this time and she spent the full two hours running and checking out EVERYTHING.

It was hard to get a good photo because she was so active but here is what I was able to capture

The water exhibit was by far her favorite.  She would have played there the entire time!

I made her check out another exhibit and she just stood there like she was disappointed that there wasn't any water to play with.

so I let her go back for more water play. This time with an apron.

an apron which was comically large on her.

She found this infant rocker in a corner designated for nursing mothers.

inside the tree house

ping pong ball maze.....she liked sticking them in the tube maze but she LOVED hoarding the ping pong balls all to herself.  She spent a good chunk of time trying to gather as many ping pong balls as she could.  Even bravely walking up to an older child pointing to the ping pong ball he was holding and saying, "Please?!"  (it sounds so polite in the telling of it, but really it was done in such a bossy way I couldn't help but laugh.)

Can't get enough of this water!

She spent the drive back home excitedly chattering and munching on her rice cakes. I like to think she was telling her daddy all about the awesome adventure that she just had.    

(just before walking the dog today.  The piggy tails just kill me.)
