Our Regular Weekend Go-To

We go to the Life and Science Museum in Durham almost every weekend, especially now that the weather is so hot. There is stuff to do inside and outside. If it's hot out we do outside stuff first and then come inside. Lately we've been going to these places outside: The butterfly house:

He loves the plants in here just as much as the butterflies. There are partridges in here as well, they are amazing!
Then to Into the Mist:
H
This exhibit is basically a bunch of artificial grassy knolls with mist and he likes crawling all around. We usually get pretty wet too, so the logical thing to do next is catch a cool breeze on the train:
Then we look at the animals and drum on the drums. Then we head inside.
His new favorite things inside are these huge blue blocks:
 He likes to climb over them:
Our last stop is usually the infant room which he is quickly growing out of but the last time we went we wandered out of the infant room and into the bigger kid area which has lots of stuff like a play kitchen, a play barnyard/animal hutch, a lego wall and so much more:

He really enjoyed the lego wall. I have a feeling that stepping on legos is in our future...I can hear the expletives flying out of Mike's mouth now.
Here is a video of him playing drums, crawling around rooms and playing in the infant room:

  1. What great fun...SOOOO many things to explore and enjoy.
    (I was noticing that once he was sitting in the W position with his legs and feet going towards the back on both sides of him. Supposedly this is not good when they are in the midst of developing their hips.
