Wednesday February 9th, 2011 - Museum of Nature


Campbell and Mommy went to the Museum of Nature today. Daddy got a free year membership for all of his hard work for the renovations. We didn't get there until 10:30 and thought that we wouldn't be able to have time to see everything, so Campbell got to choose from the map what he wanted to see. But he was so good and kept wanting to see the next thing that we stayed for over 2 hours and saw the whole place. Some sections quicker than others, then had lunch at the restaurant there. It was an amazing day.. So much fun to see him so excited over the "BIG DINOSAURS" and all the other exhibits. He has so many more words too, to describe what he is seeing and how excited he is about it.. It was so much fun..
Campbell wanted to see the DINOSAURS first of course.. This is Campbell in front of the "BABY DINOSAUR".
Campbell in front of the MOMMY DINOSAUR.. He loved the dinosaurs, the bones or these more realistic looking ones.. he loved it, his eyes were wide and he pointed at everything.. talking up a storm, telling me all about what he was seeing..

Campbell in front of the "BIG DINOSAUR, WITH BIG TEETH".
This was in the bird sanctuary, which Campbell loved.. He got so excited about a display that showed an egg, then a duck at 5 days old, then 20 days old, then 50 days old and then the adult duck.. He stood there for ages.. saying "the egg cracks open and out comes the baby duck!!" and the hands start together and then as shown below. :) It was too cute and the security guard just loved it.. couldn't help but watch and smile.. he did this many many times.
This is the rescue vehicle in the kids area of the bird sanctuary that Campbell liked to play in but kept saying "too hard, Mommy" because the steering wheel wouldn't turn..
Campbell and his map.. He was so proud to hold onto it and pick the next thing for us to see.. It was really cute.

What a GREAT DAY!!! I can't tell you how eye opening and fun it was to go there with him.. and just see him.. he was so good and it was so GREAT to see him so excited and learning and talking.. it was so much FUN!! Hopefully next time Daddy will be able to come too.
