Outing to the Children's Museum

Our home group went to the children's museum today for our weekly summer outing. They just opened a new dinosaur exhibit and also had an alligator snapping turtle visiting for the week. The kids had a lot of fun playing together.

Ellie and a dinosaur

Emmaline's new favorite toy is the mirror.
She loves to look at herself, babble, and give kisses in it.

Ellie liked playing in the sandbox and excavating dinosaur bones

Jacob took this picture of Mommy and Emmaline. He wanted to take a picture of a dinosaur too, but only captured its tail (on the left).
