Science Center Fun!

First, a few more snow day pictures!.... Zander is in love with play-doh right now!  We are using it to practice his numbers while the snow melts outside! ;)  Who knew learning could be so fun?!  We also made the trek to mom and dad's house so Zander could go sledding with his Grammy and Grandpa! Zack was in Orlando for work so it was nice to have the extra hands with the kids this week!


I decided the last outing before I head back to work would be the local science center.  They have added an aquarium that I wanted to check out.  Unfortunately, the zoo was closed due to the winter weather so that just means we will have to make a trip this summer to see it all!  I think a yearly membership will be a must when the kids are older!  Grammy went with me for the day.... which was a HUGE help!! She hung out with Zander as they listened to a diver in the shark tank while I found a bench to feed Maddox!  Zander does really good following directions but I never know if he will start to wander to a new exhibit while I am feeding his brother.  This way, he could keep exploring while Maddox had his morning snack! ;)  We saw penguins, otters, sting rays, sharks, octopuses, many amphibians and reptiles (in the zoo part that was still open) and Zander even touched a tarantula, snake and turtle while we were at the center.  He had a blast and we will definitely be making a trip there this summer!












Below is what happens when you pick Zander up from school and they are playing with play-doh!  He didn't want to leave!  Maybe a "terrible two" moment!?  I am glad he likes his school and his friends.... it makes it easier to be back at work next week!  On the other hand, the drive home was not so pleasant!
 Maddox was excited to see that Daddy was home last night!
 And you can see his hair is really growing!  It is coming in a lot darker than his brother's did!
