Habitot



Today we went to Habitot in Berkley. Daniel & Caytlyn had a great time.
Both the kids played on the giant Fire Truck & Daniel dressed completely in a Firefighter uniform while climbing on the truck. Caytlyn found ride on fire trucks & climbed on board & scooted around.


There was a place where the kids could use face painting crayons, so I drew a lion face on Daniel. He loved it!!! All day long he talked about being a lion and wanted to know where his lion face was.


Then we moved into the water room. There were naked dolls there that the kids could practice bathing (which Daniel decide to point out their anatomy). They could also splash & pour water in the troughs. My Daniel decided to pour water on another kid. After apologies he moved rooms to play with trains for a while.


Meanwhile, Caytlyn is crawling around & taking a few steps here and there & changing from the baby's padded room to the cars and other toys she can play with.


Daniel decides to paint on the amazing wall they have that kids can just paint on. He's doing a great job, but at one point, he turns to look at me & walks square into the kid he poured water on. This time, he accidentally paints the little boy's hair with the paint brush he's holding. Again we apologize to the mom. Did it really have to be the same boy :) The poor mom, about 2 minutes later, takes the boy & says it's time to leave.

Daniel had a great time painting & Alex joined him while Caytlyn & I watched & played near by. By the end of it, Daniel's pants looked tie-dyed - a sign of an amazing time. We played throughout the museum and had a great time overall.

When it was time to go, we walked across the street & ate at a Louisiana cafe with great food & headed back. Ran a couple of errands, played at the gym nursery & ended the eventful day with "Dollar Scoop Tuesdays" at Baskin Robbins. Caytlyn loves ice cream & thinks it's just for her. She did very well at gym nursery until she saw another child leave & realized that her parents weren't there. Good thing we were done & came right at that time.

When he got in bed tonight, he asked for his baby bed back, so I put his crib back together (which I've become a pro at) and he didn't get out of bed once. I have two beautiful sleeping children.
