Bean Sprouts, Bubble Wrap and Other Fun!

0 comments Posted by org at 11:54 AM

Yesterday was supposed to be a beautiful day but the weather decided to keep us on our toes and change our plans.  A few times over.

First, we discovered that our beans had grown even bigger!

Look closely.  
The beans have moved to the top of the ziploc bag, 
while the roots have done what roots do (move down).  
Really neat!



Next, the girls discovered some bubble wrap on the table.  
And of course, it was just begging to be played with.

Where's Emma?

There she is!



On our way to the Children's Museum.









It may not have been the day we had planned, but it was a fabulous day nonetheless! 
We hope you are enjoying this incredible weather (80 degrees in April?  Simply Amazing!)
Have a wonderful rest of the day, friends.  
We'll see you tomorrow.

Nap Time. Or Maybe Not.

0 comments Posted by org at 6:24 PM

Nap time was clearly not on the girls agenda today.  I put both of them upstairs today with the hopes that they would in fact nap, but after about thirty minutes I realized that neither one was going to be doing so.  I decided that since it was 2:30pm we needed to do something fun.  Go somewhere.  Otherwise it was going to make for a rather l-o-n-g afternoon.

I hopped online and checked the hours for our local children's museum.  The one in Boston is way better, but parking over there is a problem and so I ruled that one out. We have a membership to the one in Acton and since they are (now) open until 4:30pm we headed over there.






"Hi Gramma!"




Whoever made these costumes is brilliant!  
Each one is a vest which makes for very easy on and off.  
So cool!


Playing with the sand box.
Think zen garden with colorful sand and wide tooth combs.

We could have played with this the entire time.






Inside the bubble machine.

If you look closely you can see the bubble.



Going during nap time was perfect.
There were not too many people there which was totally fabulous.
And now that the girls are older it's super easy to be the only adult there with them.
Next time they don't want to nap, you'll know where to find us!
Have a wonderful night, dear friends.
We'll see you tomorrow.
