Feast or famine with the blog these days. Here's a quick post of our Monday adventures. The Children's Museum opened a new exhibit on flight and invited members only from 3-5 p.m. (usually the museum is closed on Mondays.) It was quite an impressive exhibit with fun for kids of all ages. It was tough to capture any pictures since the boys were on the move (mostly in opposite directions) the whole time! But we got a few. Looking forward to a return visit on a quieter day.

On Monday night after dinner I was holed up in the office working on a simulation project for my operations management class (we're spending a week simulating managing production in a factory that produces digital satellite receivers in a four step process...fascinating, I know!) I heard quite a bit of activity from the living/dining room play area and was subsequently summoned to see what the fuss was about. Apparently the boys were fighting over a set of 10 nesting blocks so John sent Edward upstairs to get a second set so each boy would have his own. Daniel is just discovering the joy of building towers, so they were soon happily building side by side. Then they combined forces into one mega-tower that was quite pleasing to all involved. However, as you'll see from the video below, Daniel has not completely abandoned his destructive instincts.
