discovering science... part two

today we went to the discovery science center with the fongs. it was a blast. right now they are having a tiger exhibit as well as a whole section dedicated to clifford. you know... the big red dog... we brought the girls here about a year ago and they loved, so it was great to take them again before we move.

here is grace perfecting her dental skills. my what big teeth you have...


they had a slide down clifford's tail and the kids liked that for about 2.5 seconds... they managed to remain inactive long enough to snap a few pictures on clifford... the first is grace and jared, then raegan and lizzie in the background.



ok, i just had to add these two pictures in because finally grace is actually smiling when i take the pictures! hip hip hooray!



after clifford, we headed outside to the dinosaur exhibit which they loved. they have a little cave to go in and they are showing this movie with a t-rex looking for food and he keeps going on and off the screen like he is looking at you and for you to eat... well, grace loved it (spending like 10 minutes straight in there) and raegs hated it (crying at the first sign of t-rex and saying 'scary, scary, scary... and on and on).

here are grace, raegan, and jared on the slide that is the dinosaur's tail.


after the outside dinosaur fun (which includes dinosaur poop!), we headed inside to do a few more things before lunch. grace really wanted to try to the rock wall, so i put her up there and had her pose for a picture, then helped her climb the wall. i was always there to support her and she got a little ways up, but after a few steps, she said... 'i'm scared, i want to come down'... so down we came.


and here is raegs in all her 'say cheese' cuteness! love her!
