MLK day: Children's Museum

I was so grateful to have the day off and to spend it with Gretchen! When I found out the Children's Museum was offering free admission for the day, I knew it would be a great way to spend the day with her! I invited our good friends to go with us! The girls had such a blast exploring the museum! G and M before entering the Barbie exhibit! I think the moms enjoyed this more than the girls!

The girls could play "secretary" and talk to Barbie on the phone.

And, they could be a hairdresser to Barbie!

Gretchen had so much fun playing with the Barbie dolls- sadly, she did push a little girl out of her way, but we quickly resolved the 'no sharing' issue.

The girls played dress up and had a chance to walk the Barbie run way!

There's a fabulous toy kitchen area that we always visit.... and, I always get Gretchen's picture by the Couch Potato!

There was a game set up in front of the couch, that the girls could play- M's little brother joined in too!

At the end of the visit, we let the girls ride the carousel! G looks a little scared, but M was so excited!

I was shocked that Gretchen was willing to ride on a horse! The last time she rode a carousel, she would only sit on the bench!

To the N family- thanks again for going with us! We'll miss you so much as you move on to Michigan!!
