A Day at the Tallahassee Museum

Thanks to my friend Lisa for sharing this nifty little thing with us! Today was Museum Day sponsored by Smithsonian Magazine in which you could go to a participating museum for free! We had just a couple choices here in town, but opted for the Tallahassee Museum which is a small little affair housing some animals and some old Florida history (school house, home, etc.). We'd been there before but not since Maddy was much younger.

Oh, and the little leaf necklace Maddy is wearing is something she made at daycare earlier in the week as a part of their "Welcome Fall" activities. She's just insisted on wearing it 24/7 since. :)


We were checking out the otter (he didn't make it into a picture).
My favorite picture of the day :)

Taking a second (literally) to sit with daddy

And a super quick second with mommy.

We brought two strollers, but hers sat empty for most of the day :) We left the large double stroller behind because it doesn't push well through sand. A good portion of the Museum is boardwalk, but not all.

My little fam :)

She stopped to sit on every bench for about 2 seconds
She thought this display was fun. She kept flipping the things up.

Such a serious face! He's finally starting to get the idea of sippy cups. I was so glad that he was willing to try given how warm it was out...gotta keep him hydrated! :)

We stopped and ate a snack before hitting the little playground they have. We stink at getting family photos...should have thought to have someone snap one for us while eating!

Maddy was all about the swings...she spent a good half hour doing nothing but swinging (well, being pushed :) still working on the whole leg-pumping thing).

Thankfully, daddy took over the pushing after Tommy had finished his food. It was HOT!

Wrong end, buddy!

We stopped at Steak and Shake for lunch on the way home (kids eat free all weekend!). This was the second time we'd gone, so Maddy made sure to don her hat once again. She loves it.

This was the first time we asked for TWO highchairs while eating out versus just having Tommy hang in the car seat. Lunch went surprisingly well with the both of them. THANK YOU, LORD!
We had a fun weekend out! Now to face another busy week of work and school and everything else. I'm off to bed! :)
