Child's play

We went to the Portland Children's Museum on Tuesday. Ryan is getting old enough now that we can participate in most of the activities and she has a blast. Scott had never been there before so it was fun to include him.

Ryan is very proud of the bowls that we made in the pottery room. She even obediently kept on her smock.

Brushing an alligator's teeth. I am really not sure what the point of this display was. It was really random.

She loved to play in the "nursery". She is very maternal and spent a long time putting the babies in the highchair and tucking them into their cradles. She was also very possessive and wanted to tend to all the babies herself.

They have a water ... room? Anyway, there are a bunch of water activities and although they provide little slickers Ryan was still soaked after playing in there. We made the mistake of going there first and she had to do without socks the rest of the day.

That looks like fun! We still haven't been there. We should go together sometime! The girls would have fun putting babies down for naps together! :)
