A busy Wednesday!

Wednesday Eli and I met some friends at the children's museum near where Edgar works. Eli had a great time running all over the place playing. They had a little fire station you could play in,
a fish tank,

an exhibit that showed sound waves,

and Eli's favorite :) This exhibit demonstrated the Bernoulli principle. I have no idea what that means, but air comes through the pipes, and the balls float in the air. Eli LOVED playing here! You can see his hair blowing in the wind :)

There was also a little grocery store set up. Eli has always wanted to push all the buttons at the grocery store-this was his big chance!

This was a cool exhibit. You hit those paddles on the tubes and they all 'play' different notes. Eli enjoyed banging on those.
We were also lucky enough to be there on a day and a time when they had a little music class. Eli loved it. All of the kids got to play musical instruments while a girl led some songs.
We went upstairs and Eli was completely distracted by the 'dance dance' exhibit...I have no idea what else was up there. He didn't want to leave the TV...
We left the museum a little after noon and met up with Edgar at Subway for lunch. It is always so fun to see daddy in the middle of the day :)
We got home and I put a cake in the oven, because...
...it was mom's birthday! We had the family over for dinner to celebrate.
It was kind of an impromptu gathering, so we didn't really have gifts ready, but Katie was on the ball, and had a little gift for her Abuela :)
It was such a fun day. I was tired at the end of the day, but it was all worth it :)
