McWane Center

Yesterday we went to the McWane Center. This was my first outing with all 3 kids by myself. I must admit that I was a little bit nervous about the event, but at the end of the day I learned one thing- I can do it!! My friend, Eve, and her precious babies, Genna and Andrew, met us there, and we all had a great time. The train exhibit is now at the McWane Center and it was a huge hit with the boys. Of course, Bennett wanted to ride the Choo Choo, but amazingly he didn't pitch a fit when he couldn't.
Sweet little Andrew- he was such a good boy.

Genna and Brady watching some of the trains- they really were cool!

A match made in heaven!

This was Bennett's favorite activity- playing on the train table. I finally had to drag him away from it.

Reagan, my sweet little angel, was such a good girl!

Two little train conductors.

Running as fast as we can down the piano keys.

Such great teamwork! I'm telling you these 2 are meant to be together! Bennett had just gotten through drenching himself with water from that tall cylinder that Brady is holding. He attempted to drink water from it and he got a face full! It was hilarious- wish I had gotten a picture of that.

Taking everything in...

or Reagan's look could have been at the scene we had at our lunchtime adventure. Eve and her kids left, so we decided to go eat our lunch I had packed. Everything was going great. The boys were eating and Brady was telling a lady at the table all of our business. For all of you Auburn fans, Brady told her- "we don't like Alabama, we like Auburn". I was hoping this wouldn't offend her, but secretly I was proud of my boy. That brain washing is really paying off! Anyways...so I looked over at my precious Bennett and noticed that of course he started gagging on his food. Something was stuck to the roof of his mouth and of course the strong gag reflex he inherited from his daddy took affect and he proceeded to start throwing up. I was holding Reagan, so I put her in the stroller and tried my best not to look around at I'm sure all the people who were disgusted by the entire event. Oh, did I mention we were sitting at the front table at the very end in the cafeteria- front and center for everyone to lose their appetite. Well I cleaned up as best I could and jetted out of there without looking back (don't worry- I did tell someone who worked there that they were going to have to disinfect the high chair).
So besides the pukefest and a couple of fits Bennett pitched, we had a great stress free time. Thanks so much to Eve, Genna, and Andrew for meeting us to play. We'll have to do it again soon!
