We had another fantastic weekend with our little lady. I was debating between a place called Bounce Realm with lots of inflatable things to climb on and the museum. Well, Thursday at school sealed the deal with the museum winning out. We are talking about dinosaurs in preschool and
Tizita was so interested in them, that I wanted to share the museum dinosaurs with her. We were not disappointed in her enthusiasm and excitement at not only the dinosaurs but everything that we saw there.
We started in the butterfly area. It is so quiet and peaceful in there with all the beautiful butterflies just hanging around. Sometimes you are lucky enough to have one land on you. Here John is showing Tizita the butterfly that he was able to get on his finger.
Then if was my turn to "catch" one and share it with Tiz.
We had fun in the insect/butterfly area after leaving the butterfly house. Here you see Tizita sitting in the chrystalis.
After the butterflies we headed to the dinosaur area. Tizita could not get enough of those dinosaurs. So different than her Aunt Alissa who was always so scared of the dinosaurs. She would not even go near the whole area.
Here is the famous T-rex biting the Triceratops. Tiz liked seeing all the guts.
After a walk through the Rain Forest, we had a pricey, but yummy lunch in the cafeteria. Note to self, "next time pack you own lunch." Tiz enjoyed a huge hot dog, a fruit cup, chocolate milk, root beer, pretzels, and a big brownie.
We visited the streets of Old Milwaukee and the European villages. The streets of O. M. were always my favorite part as a little girl, but I think that may be because that was the only part of the museum that wasn't old artifacts in glass cases. My, how things have changed. We have countless pictures taken right here next to this storyteller with our girls.
And, we had a picture of Courtney taken right here in this spot when she was three and on her first visit to the museum. She was wearing a cute pastel sundress. For some reason, I always dressed my girls up for our trips to the museum, not sure why.
And no trip to the museum is complete without a stop in the igloo.
Tizita wanted our pictures taken by this statue. She set up shots with me and grandpa.
We took her new zhu zhu pet along, but he stayed safely in the backpack until we found a nice bench where the zhu zhu could run around.
Tizita wanted to go back to the butterfly house and the dinosaurs before we left. A butterfly ended up right on grandpa's head, we figure he liked the gray hair.
And finally, after much patience and sitting still like a rock, a butterfly landed on Tiz's pretty shirt.
And here is our little lady on the way home. All three of us were so tired out after our big day at the museum. Chalk it up as another wonderful memory.
