CMH with the Armstrongs

This morning after we woke up and had breakfast, I asked the kids what they wanted to do today. Since Brennan had picked yesterday's excursion, I wanted to let the girls make the decision for the day. Cara said she wanted to go the place that she had seen on the blog so many times and after I described some of the things from the Children's Museum, she said that was the place she was talking about.

Sadly, it was raining, but we still ventured out to the museum. Daddy also took off work today to join us! It was pretty crowded since the weather was so nasty outside, but we still had a great time.

Upon arriving, Andrew said he wanted to go cook and the girls were amicable to that. However, Brennan didn't want any part of that so Rick told him to explore other areas of the musuem. After cooking, the girls said they wanted to go to the grocery store and had a lot of fun there.

Then, we went to go find Rick and Brennan and found them in the science area. The kids had a great time exploring and experimenting here. Brennan was all about playing a video game with construction trucks. The girls wanted to try pulling themselves up in the chair via a pulley system.

Afterwards, we let the kids climb down the Tower and met them in Cyberspace. The boys had fun running through an obstacle course over and over again. Andrew loves to follow Brennan! And the girls did a fantasic job on the rock wall. Both were able to climb the entire way without falling once!

By this time, we wanted to go grab some lunch and headed towards one of Andrew's favorites, Yum Yum. Then, it was time to head home for Andrew's nap.

Tonight, the Armstrongs went over to celebrate Christmas with Rick's side of the family and then were going to head to League City and stay with Papa and Ngoai. Uncle Foo invited us to Pappasito's for dinner with some of his friends. Andrew was so well behaved in the restaurant and ate very well. I was overjoyed! We had a great day. Tomorrow, we will head to League City to hang out some more. Daddy has to work, but will come down Friday after work for New Year's Eve.
