Tot School ::33::
Before anyone is under ANY illusion that this is my house pictured ~ rest assured it isn't {grins}. While we were visiting with some friends this last week, we were able to spend the day at their wonderfully amazing children's museum ~ and Kaleb was in pure bliss!
The day prior to the children's museum we went to Colonial Williamsburg ~ a.k.a. not so much fun for Kaleb, unless being pushed around in a stroller all day counts for fun. Trying to keep him happy meant resorting to letting him use the camera and take pictures of me.
Mind you, it's the only picture of me from our trip. I apparently need to work with him on framing a shot and more flattering angling...
I didn't like the picture, so he had to spend some time in the stocks. :) I kid you not, there were people there {in their 60's} asking if they used these to cut off people's feet!!!
After a good night's rest, we decided to head to the children's museum. 244 pictures ~ so feel relieved that I'm only posting these. :) Kaleb spent the majority of the time at the museum playing in the ambulance. Lights. Sirens. Buttons to push. It was pure.boy.heaven.
The museum had a wonderful grocery store ~ after he was done grocery shopping, Kaleb spent some time checking himself out.
He spent a little time digging around for dinosaur bones...well, ok, more like playing in the pretend dirt and flinging it around.
This is probably one of my favorite pictures of Kaleb. Period. Just too stinkin' cute he is.
They had the most amazing apple tree in the center of the museum that would pull up apples in a conveyor of sorts and then roll them down into tubes where they would drop out and wait to be picked. Baskets and baskets full of apples were picked.
Kaleb also made his acting debut. He pulled a line from Letter Factory and announced, "Ladies and gentlemen...proud to present..."
And then there was the water table. The HUGE water table in which Kaleb got soaking, soaking, soaking wet. And then cried and fussed because he wanted a towel. Only to return later and soak himself some more.
After a full day, Kaleb took a break in the 'lake' and spent some time fishing. They had a variety of red, yellow, and green fish that Kaleb sorted after he caught them all.
Don't forget to visit Carissa at 1+1+1=1 for some more Tot School posts.

Okay, that looks like so much fun that *I* want to go there. I guess I should nose around and find the equivalent in my city. :D

I'm eagerly looking forward to taking my kids to Colonial Williamsburg. I loved that place.
And yes, I'm routinely amazed at how ignorant people are of the past.

We have a Children's Museum as well. It looks very similar, except we have a fire truck, not an ambulance. I also have a Caleb and he loves it too!
