MS Museum of Natural Science

Lee and I aren't used to having two days in a row where we are all home together so this weekend was really nice being able to experience what most normal families call a "weekend"! We had fun getting used to our new family of four. But, by Monday, we were all ready to get out and enjoy the weather so we grabbed a bite to eat, bundled up Maggie and covered her from head to toe, and headed over to the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science. We have been trying to use as many of our Entertainment Book coupons before they expire on November 1st and we had a buy one get one free admission to the museum. It was sooo much fun and Lee kept saying over and over that he couldn't believe that he had never been there as a child! Addison had a blast and kept running ahead then turning around and saying "Look Daddy!" She liked the idea of the Dinosaur exhibit from afar and kept pointing to the entrance until we finally went in and then once the noises started she had no interest at all and kept saying "Dinosaurs scare me!" After exploring the museum, we walked on several of the nature trails then finished off at the awesome playground. Maggie, of course, slept the whole time and we all had a blast experiencing the museum through the eyes of a two and a half year old. I would highly recommend the museum to anyone looking for a fun day away from the house!

This is what Maggie did the whole time! Isn't it great being a newborn?
