A Day at the Museum

Rather, a couple hours. The Bean is a little young for the Portland Children's Museum, but man that place is cool. Sure, it's a cess pool of snotty noses and norovirus, but it also has a water room, a train set, a construction zone, a play animal hospital, a mini grocery store and cafe, and so much more. The Bean and I spent most of our time in the "baby garden," where she crawled on uneven soft mats, climbed some cushioned stairs, stared creepily at other kiddos, tried to put some plastic toys in her mouth (gross! We will probably have Ebola at our house this week), and talked incessantly about the big stuffed dog that was hiding from the animal hospital next door (dah! Dah! Dah!). We had a great time and can't wait to bring Daddy a million and two times in the next year to take advantage of our new membership (thanks Barbara and Ron!)
