Saturday my mom came to meet us at the Tellus Science Museum, which is about 40 minutes from our house. We were going to go shopping at the outlet mall, but I decided at the last minute that going to the science museum would be a lot more fun for Parker. We enjoy going to the museum because they have some really cool exhibits and Parker is able to walk around and get some exercise.
Hannah ate right away, then slept the rest of the time
Watching a movie about dinosaur fossils
The dino exhibit is my favorite and Parker's too. These dinos are huge and we all look so small compared to their enormous size!
This was Parker's favorite dino (we said it reminded us of the Loch Ness monster)
We couldn't get over how big the flippers were on this sea creature!
This is a prehistoric armadillo - so cool! Parker thought he was pretty cool so he was clapping for him - hah!
The mouth of a shark - seriously??
The museum also has a transportation exhibit with carriages, motorbikes, helicopters, airplanes, trains and space shuttles. When you have an on-the-go 3 year old, you can't really stop and read all the interesting information, but they had the first vehicle developed by Henry Ford - an 1896 quadricycle. It was really cool!
This train was awesome and very pretty. I had to take a quick picture of Parker by it, because if you notice in the bottom left there is a sign that clearly reads, "Please do not climb or sit on the platforms." Luckily, we didn't get caught - hah!
We had a fun day and Grandma was glad she got to meet us and spend time with the kiddos. Thanks for meeting us Grandma and for the yummy lunch!
