St. Louis Science Center

Eliza has been waiting to go to the sience center ever since we heard about the dinosaurs they have in there basement. We only had an hour to spend there, so that was all we saw but that was enough for her.

When you walk in the door you see this anamatronic T-rex. It is awesome.

Here is the downstairs veiw with the injured triceratops.
Digging for fossils.


They even let Eliza hold a fossil. (That little sign next to her says "Do Not Touch". I guess you just have to know the right people)

A T-rex foot print.
Watching our money go down the hole to see how gravity works.

Feeling a tornado.
You could touch the screen to learn about different planets.

Alex's Haircut

Alex has crazy, wavy hair and he doesn't like me to comb it, so every few months Jason buzzes it with the clippers. This time he wanted to have a little fun.

Cute Kids!

Here are a few random pictures we have taken over the last couple weeks of things that made me laugh or I thought were cute.
I came downstairs and the kids were playing in a pretend spaceship. They wanted to include Mason, so they made him the alien.Alex was picking dandelions during Eliza's soccer practice. He came over and told me he had found a flower with an egg on top. I went to see what he was talking about and there was a dandelion that the petals had fallen of off and he thought the center was an egg.
Eliza loves being a big sister and she is really good at it!
What can I say!!

Eliza made this fish at school. It took them 3 days to make and she did such a good job that they hung it in the art show.

Hunted for eggs.
And played with the Legos the Easter Bunny left. All while Mason played with his new sandals.
