Saturday morning we woke up early and got to the Children's Museum when it opened (always a good tactic, because a half hour after the place opens - it's packed!!). We ended up getting a membership, because I figured with winter keeping us indoors and Dave about to start studying for another test, it would be a good investment for us. Ethan's favorite part was the boat, but I was also proud of him for going upstairs into a glass tunnel area basically all by himself - very brave.
Playing a little music for us 
Sometimes I think Daddy enjoyed the museum a bit more than Ethan! :)
Just like Daddy...Junior engineer putting together some piping
Up in the glass tunnel looking down on us
We also had the opportunity to visit with Dave's sister and our niece (Uncle Robin was busy with a conference in Chicago) while they were in town from Pittsburgh for the long weekend. Rowan and Ethan are almost exactly a year apart, so it's always interesting to see the differences. It's too bad that we live so far, because it would be nice for them to get to know each other a little better. But, they do just fine the little time we do see them.
Ethan playing tea party with Rowan...kind of. :) This picture cracks me up because Rowan is 'all girl' with her pretty skirt and pink hat on and Ethan is 'all boy' with his camo hat and football shirt! :) 
Rowan immediately put ont he ballerina outfit we got her for her birthday..very cute!!
Playing a little play-doh together at Grandma and Grandpa's house.
We look forward to seeing the family again at Christmas!!

Sounds like a fun weekend. I miss the Naperville Children's Museum, that place is SO FUN. Someone told me it was about to shut down, though. Have you heard that? I don't know why they would shut it down, that place is kid central!
