Hank and I joined a small group. Actually, that implies a little more commitment than what we've actually put forth. We've gone on two outings with a lovely bunch of ladies and their youngins. Better?
The first was a trip to a local park for playground and creek time. Easy, fun and knocked the Tank out for about 2 hours. This time we went to McWane Science Center in downtown Birmingham. I assumed all of these learning museum type places were all a little too advanced for H's 15 months but my neighborfriend assured me that there would be plenty for him (and her daughter who is a day younger than him) to do. She could not have been more right.
We parked the strollers and the minute Tank's feet hit the ground he was SPRINTING through the place. Going from exhibit to exhibit, dropping balls into baskets, pushing kids twice his size out of the way to push BUTTONS!!, putting stars into constellations, stomping on unsuspecting parents, planting wooden flowers, and much, much more. Sure, he didn't understand the idea behind any of it but the kid had a blast. My favorite part is when he would turn around to make sure I was still behind me and grin that big toothy grin, turn back and give me a hug. SO sweet.

| I swear he had fun. Why does this kid hate cameras?! |

| Sweet little gardener. |
