Yesterday, we went to the Austin Children's Museum to have a playdate with Javen and Silina. Our playdates are few and far between, but so much fun when we have them. We are looking at another one next week at the San Marcos Library where the firemen are coming to visit to read the kiddos stories and they get to explore the big fire truck.
So, back to the museum...they had so much fun. They loved the train/car table that is in the lobby area when you first come in.
We went the inventors area (which is actually for 5+ yr olds, but they had fun). They liked to build some strange contraptions with the little wheels and sticks. Joshua was more into dancing the sticks around the table than anything else.
Then there was the little construction zone with little plastic nuts and bolts that they would sort by shapes and drop into the pipes to go to the first floor. When on the first floor you can send the nuts and bolts up a pipe to the second floor.
Here they are building a brick wall together.
Little slide babies.
Playing a couple of games in the Rising Star Ranch area.
Then of course Joshua would find the area with the toy cows to play with. He wanted to just stay there and put the cows into the little barn over and over again. I think Daddy is going to need to build him a toy barn or we are going to have to buy the one on schleich-s.com.
Joshua liked to play with the trucks too.
Right before leaving the museum I got a picture of the boys holding hands. It was so adorable and a true sign of how they are best friends.
We walked up a couple of blocks and had lunch at the Spaghetti Warehouse. The boys immediately wanted to get on the horse, which they proceeded to not like after getting on it. Oh well.
Here is Joshua just before getting on the freeway to go home.
It was a very fun morning and will have to be repeated again.
