Natural Science Museum

Mommy and Andrew ventured off to the Natural Science Museum so Daddy could get some studying time in. We started off by checking out the dinosaurs, but Andrew was quick to say "all done." Then, I took him upstairs to see the fake animals since he used to love the ducks. He still did, but not as much as before. But he spent a good amount of time looking for all the ducks in the exhibits. He did also like looking at the monkeys and lions.

But finally, we made our way to the Butterfly Center. Andrew loved looking around and was entralled with the butterflies. We also checked out the iguana, frog and bees that were there too. Andrew got a little scared when a butterfly came really close to him (check out the expression on his face in the first picture--totally spastic.) Afterwards, we played in the play area where they have puzzles and other fun activities for the kiddos. Andrew spent most of his time in the big shape sorter.

By that time, Drew had had enough and was ready to go home. I tried to extend it as long as I could, but Andrew was done. We gave Daddy only about an hour and a half of alone time. Good, but not great. But definitely better than nothing.
