Do you believe in magic?

Tuesday, while the girls were at GG's house, John and I had a morning at the Magic House. It's fun to watch him become so much more adventurous. The last time we went he didn't really want to leave my side, but this time, he was all on his own. He played with other kids, and worked with them on some of the exhibits. He even went down the big slide. It is a couple stories tall, so he had to wait at the top by himself while I went down the stairs to meet him at the bottom. I expected him to not want to wait alone and refuse to go down it, but he was fine. As soon as he got to the bottom he ran back up the stairs all by himself to do it again. It was neat, but also a little sad watching him be so independent. Here are some pics of his fun day.


The new "Sandcastle Beach" exhibit. We played in the sand for a little while, but it was WAY too hot outside to be out very long.


John working the crane, with his hard hat on backwards.

Digging in the indoor sandbox.


Working with another little boy to make all the bells ring with a tennis ball.

the amazing floating balls - He loved this exhibit
