Out of the house

     This week I managed to drag myself and the boys out of the house.  Along with some friends we ventured to the Botanical Center.  It was a lovely site and warm on a very cold Iowa morning.  The boys had a ton of fun seeing, touching, and smelling all of the different plants that are all contained within the dome.  This is the one thing I love about the Botanical Center.  It is very hands on and we have never been told “not to touch” or “ssshhhhh”- very child friendly.  I do wish that the plants were labeled a little better so that I could explain more to Moo Moo but nonetheless it is a learning experience that he would otherwise not get to experience first hand.  Oh… and very cheap as far as things to do. 

Moo Moo and his friend C. had fun doing the scavenger hunt together.  Wrinkles was there with us too but he hung out in the Ergo on my back the whole time so we didn’t get any fun pictures of him even though he was having fun feeling the plants too. 🙂
