Mayborn Museum

About 2 weeks ago, the boys and I went with our friends, Dana, Evan, and Colin, to the Mayborn Museum in Waco. They had a very cool Lego exhibit with lots of fun lego structures to look at and of course legos to play with. I think we could have spent the whole time in there, but we ventured out to the other areas, too. Zander's favorite part was the lego boulder launch. You built a lego wall on the computer and then launched a boulder at it to see if you made it stong enough. He really enjoyed that! Mason was fascinated with everything. He loves to follow his big brother around and do everything he is doing, so he had lots of fun at the museum doing just that. After spending a few hours playing at the museum, we enjoyed some lunch together at Favoli's (my favortie!) before heading home. As we were getting in the car to go home, Zander said to me, "Mommy, that was great! I had fun with Evan at the musuem playing with legos." It always makes me smile to hear him say things like that.

Grow Capsules

Since it's been pretty cold outside, I bought some things to do indoors for Zander. Monday, I let him play with these grow capsules.

He LOVED them!! He was so excited to put the little capsules in the water and watch them transform and "grow" into foam animals.

Zander named them "medicine animals" and told everyone that came over all about them. I didn't know they would be so exciting. The best part is they were only $1.
