Discovery Gateway

We went downtown to the Discovery Gateway last week with my sister Liz and her kids, and our little friend Max. It was so fun (besides the giant group of 3rd or 4th graders that were there. Like termites - everywhere! Every kid you see with a blue vest on. that's them.)

We somehow got away without the double stroller, so (trying to be innovative with our single) I reclined the seat all the way back and put Wyatt behind, and strapped baby Max in front. It worked out well for a few min - well, seconds.

Wy got a little Hug-Happy, and Max doesn't love the hugs.

Can you blame him??


So I made Wyatt stand on the front of the stroller and just hold on to the tray.

He didn't mind.

Wyatt eating a plastic carrot from the tiny house. Yum, do you think anyone else has put that in their mouths?

Kathryn driving the car. This girl was not afraid to shove a big blue-vested kid aside so she could have fun too. You go girl.

Who needs boats when you can just ride a swan?

Marissa was so awesome taking care of Wyatt and helping him out all over the museum.

This is the fun water watchamacallit. Pumping, dumping, spinning, wells, wheels, balls, boats, and of course, water.

Offering to help the big kids - they really didn't want his help.

Even though Marissa got him a stool to stand on, Wyatt just wasn't high enough (this is very typical) so he shimmied out of his shoe to use it as a step stool on top of a step stool.

This awesome ball place was so fun. You gather balls and stick them into the tubes that suck them back up the machine. I'm wondering why if they suck in why did it blow his hair away when he opened it?

We were there for hours past Wy's naptime - and he was so happy to be there! But the minute he curled up in my legs, he was GONE.
