The Museum

Thanks to our library's awesome adventure program we were able to go to the library for free one Saturday. It was so much fun! I wasn't sure what Aaron would think, but he loved it. He was chattering and looking at everything, and would get confused by the glass because he couldn't touch things. He liked it much more than the zoo because the animals were all visible. 
We found these spinning chairs and had a blast on them.
He rode the llama with me.
It's crazy taking Aaron to all of the places that I went to as a kid. My favorite part is finding pictures like these and comparing them. 
It was easier to compare his size to this tiny little dinosaur. 
Aaron got to touch a t rex tooth and poop and watch them digging a bone out of dirt. 

He loved looking at things with daddy.
He was very vocal through the museum and was talking to all the animals, but especially these stuffed lions. He was babbling to them for quite a bit. There were a few animals he started full on happy screaming at and so we had to move past those quickly. 
There was an exhibit of Russian gemstones tucked in a room and when we were looking at them Aaron started whining very loudly until we went back to the stuffed animals. 

I got the cutest video of Aaron and Sammy clapping together in the family restroom that I love so much :) Also, that was the coolest family restroom that I've ever seen. 

I can't wait to keep coming here with Aaron as he gets more and more aware. We had a lovely time as a family though and it was nice to find something we could do that entertains all of us.

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
