Random Poses

We got a new camera, and while try to figure out how to use it, my kids were so happy to pose and be silly.

And a few more of Caitlyn a few days later

Brookfield Zoo

Jared had to fly to New York on a Sunday for a work meeting the next day, so we went to the zoo!

The last time we took a similar picture, Caitlyn was in my belly!  Josh was then, a little bit older than Caitlyn is now!  I try to think about what they will look like when Caitlyn is the age Josh is now, three years from now.

Indianapolis Children's Museum

Jared had to check something for a client, in Indianapolis; being that it was Spring Break, we drove down with him for a change of pace.  We spent about 24 hours in Indiana, so it was a quick trip while he did a little work.

when in Indy, start with an Indy Car!

 We started in the Playscape.  Building

 simple machines

 wind tunnel

 Sandtable

 Music

 After a snack, we moved on to the construction area

 After lunch the doll area.  After playing with a friend's dollhouse the night before, this was a big hit!

 We didn't do anything with the clay warriors, but a bunch of other people were taking pictures, so they had to, too.

 Dinosphere

 chiluly exhibit

beautiful even in the reflection on the floor

making her own sculpture

 The artist's renderings

sitting under the art...the seat spun around, and Josh wanted me to take a movie of the slowly moving seat...luckily for you, I said I'll just take a picture

you could look to see each of these particular shapes repeated throughout the sculpture

 And finally, the railroad exhibit...

the origination of the phrase " the real McCoy"

It was a little expensive for what I would normally deem reasonable for the three of us to do $48! And we did spend more time than we normally would (10-2) at such a site, plus $28 for lunch since we couldn't pack our own...I guess you can chalk it up to "Spring Break"
