Our First Play Date

In March, our church MOPS group had a play date at the Owensboro Area Museum. Luke and I went along and were joined by cousins Hunter and Cole when we arrived. This was the same week as our accident, so we still have the Band-Aid on. The little boys really liked Luke's Spider Man Band-Aid. The 2nd floor of the museum is a discovery/play area for kids. That's where we spend the majority of our time. They have an indoor playground that's really nice, but the kids seemed to enjoy the discovery area much more.

There was a large orange cone at the entrance that was an air funnel that the kids could turn on. Basically it was like a fan covered by a box and cone, and when it was on it would suspend a beach ball in the air above the cone. Our older kiddos figured out how to climb onto the box and stand above the cone. They loved feeling the air blowing in their faces. As you can see, the little ones soon caught on.


This is cousin Hunter and Lauren (another MOPPET).


Luke and Evan (Lauren's baby brother) Evan is actually a month or two older than Luke.

Luke also went down a slide all by himself. He climbed up the stairs and went down head first on his belly. He looks like a seal when he slides...very cute.

This is cousin Cole in the NASCAR section of the museum.

Hi John! Happened to find your blog while looking at some other people's. Guess I'm way out of the loop--I knew you'd gotten married, but I had no idea you were a daddy! You and Christy have a beautiful little boy there. Hope his boo-boo gets better!

By the way, Leigh Ann and Woody got married??? Totally didn't know that, either! Guess that's what I get for moving out of state. :)
