CMOM Visit

 

We hadn’t taken Owen to the children’s museum in well over a year.  We decided to head in on a boring Sunday morning, and it was a blast.  Our fan loving boy was mainly attracted to the FedEx airplane section where he got to fly a plane and run a turbofan jet engine.  We were also able to get him to fish awhile, but everything else was a non-interest once he saw the fans.  We actually became members since this pregnant lady will not be outside in 100 degree weather come mid-July!

Dad had to help until some steps opened up!

This was Owen’s FAVORITE thing in the whole museum. You turn on about 10 box fans that lift the small plane in the box. Then you can adjust the wings to make it turn. He really only cared about the fans Smile

Windblown!

Stacking boxes… there was a cute conveyor belt that they put the boxes on then turn a wheel to send them up into the plane.  They then fall down a slide on the other side.

He really wanted to go back to the plane, but stopped to clean up the hula hoops on the way back.

We made a thunderstorm complete with rain, wind, thunder, and lightening!
