Children's Museum

It has been warming up here in MN, which means it is the season of SNIRT - snow, dirt, grime, and garbage everywhere. Not much you can do outside this time of year except chip away at the ice and snow and dream of spring and summer. In an effort to overcome our cabin fever, we took Paul down to the Children's Museum in St. Paul last Sunday. We met Brian, Gretchen, and Jorgen for lunch (partly to celebrate Brian's 37th birthday!) and John's sisters Anna and Becky also joined us and then tagged along to the museum. Paul typically found one or two things he liked to do (usually over and over and over) at each exhibit. Here are a few pics:

Anna and Becky playing with the dinosaurs. Note the lack of children...

Oh yeah, we took some pictures of Paul, too:

Crawling through the log - with his flipper, of course


Sliding down the ramp - Paul thought the slides were great


Digging for dinosaurs bones


Frogs are cool, too

Most kids get attached to a stuffed animal . . . yours is attached to a kitchen implement! Very funny!
