Science Museum


We went to Chicago for a mini vacation last month.  The Museum of Science and Industry was our favorite. 
The kids enjoyed playing with this light experiment.  Patrick tried his hand at pulling a tablecloth out from under a bunch of dishes.  Unfortunately my camera died on his next attempt and I missed him successfully complete the task.

Harvest Fest was this weekend.  Austin and Alexis both participated in the parade again this year.  Austin marched with the high school band. Alexis was part of a flash mob that was organized by the high school cheerleaders. They did a cheer and a dance at the end of the parade.  She's a little hard to find because so many girls were crowded in the street.  Look for a light blue shirt (most of the girls have a darker blue or white on) and she's left of the girl wearing the white tee with a helmet on it.

Giggly Aiden

 
Aiden sure likes to laugh!  Both of these videos, which were taken over the summer on two different days, were both spontaneous laughing at odd items.  This first video, he laughs at Alexis shaking a plastic bag.  She just happened to pick up the bag to put some things in it and it made a noise which startled Aiden.  Apparently he thought it was funny so, of course, Alexis had to do it over and over again to keep him laughing.  

The second video is Aiden laughing at a paper towel.  I was cleaning up a spill on the floor and the paper towel brushed against his leg.  He giggled so I continued to tickle him with it.  Oh what a silly boy!
