Dinosoar

On Sunday we went to Jakey’s friend Brady’s third birthday party at the Children’s Discovery Museum.  It was all about dinosaurs, those little roll-up party horns and unnatural colors of frosting.  After we got hopped-up on sugar and paraphernalia dinosauria, we decided to check-out the museum.

Jake’s favorite stop was at the wheel of a real fire engine.  Nate’s favorite stop was the “no shoes” infant climbing room with carpeted ramps, steps and plexiglass walls.  He was so emboldened by his ability to speed around the baby maze that for a few short seconds, he forgot his fears, limitations and negative self-talk and took at least 8 steps in a row… before noticing that he was walking… thus crashing back to earth (well, not really crashing as Nate is highly coordinated and really just adeptly lowers himself back to a kneeling position).

I wonder how many kids can say they discovered walking at the Discovery Museum?  There’s an ad campaign in here somewhere…
