Day at the Museum

Max spent the rainy morning at the Long Island Children's Museum and had fun exploring all of the hands-on exhibits.  

Behind the scenes or on air?  Max can do it all!

Fishing 

Max's favorite part of the museum- rolling the golf ball into the hole.

Giant bubbles

Max made the elevator go up and down 

Max really likes to use scissors- he is pretty good at it, too

Pawley!!

Max's favorite truck- an excavator!

Max is in desperate need of some new cups, but he disagrees. He loves his straw cups as if they are pacifiers, making them tough to toss, even when they are leaky and gross.  In an effort to get Max on board with a new cup, we took a trip to Target and let him pick one out.  He became obsessed with the cat cups (Pawley cups), and was hugging them like crazy.  Too bad he already has that cup and does not really use it.  Eventually he was persuaded to purchase two "big boy" water bottles.  Max proudly took his new cups to the cashier and ceremoniously disposed of his old straw cup in the store.  He has since asked for the old cup a few times, but hopefully he will get over it soon.
