keeping order with legos

It was an Owen & Wendy day today. Lucky me, we got MLK day off and decided to spend it at the Children's Museum. We got there pretty early in the moring (about 1/2 hour after it opened) and I was surprised to see all the cars but knew they had a special exhibit going on...What I didn't expect was the widget zoo at the Children's museum! There were SO many kids that it was a little scary. All I can say is that parents need to do parenting sometimes. Owen was quite adventurous and we explored a section which we hadn't explored in the past - an area where the bigger kids tended to play. We had a blast hammering nails and twisting screws - i think he was inspired by all the time spent putting his room together.

What cracked me up the most was what he built over in the lego section. There were all sorts of towers being built and endless pieces to build them with...instead, Owen's orderly side took over -

I love the museum! I'm so happy you are members! I'm not sure what part was Maia's fave - or if it was the ice cream shop outside... xo
