WOW Museum

This morning we joined frequent Tuesday play-daters Wyatt, and his mama, Jess at the WOW Children's Museum.  This lovely tucked-away gem was very busy as we woke to snow this morning after enjoying 80 degree temps last weekend. 

last Saturday afternoon


The WOW museum is certainly a place that can and will entertain Ben for years to come.  Many of the activities would be more enjoyed by the 3-8 year old set, but Ben mostly had fun nonetheless.  Unfortunately this was one of his first lessons in taking turns and it was hard for him to grasp that he couldn't stay on the moving Jeep non-stop.  We practiced waiting in line a couple times, but the tantruming did not end.  After awhile he was distracted by other fun activities.  Rather than name all the fun things WOW offered, I'll let you look HERE if you care:).

the ball room was a big hit with both boys

After playing we enjoyed lunch at Santiago's and a gorgeous drive to run some errands in Boulder.  The fog lifting off the snow covered Flatirons and many farms with green green grass peeking through the dusting of snow had me longing for warmer temps, wider road shoulders and a bag full of lenses I covet.  The pictures in my mind are gorgeous and the beautiful calm drive hit the spot:).

  1. What a busy week you've already had. Better save some energy for the highly-competitive Family Compound Egg Hunt on Sunday :) You're an awesome mama to be scouting out all these awesome things for the nugget - he has pure joy and wonderment written all over that face!!
