Our little tree hugger in a tree "house" at the museum.
This is Madeline attempting to put her arm around her brother, who kept refusing her attempts.
Petting the nasty smelling snake.
RyRy with the rat. The biologist told us they make great pets, better than hampsters or gerbils because they don't bite. Really, it makes no difference to me, because we will NEVER have a rat for a pet. Sorry Ry!
Madeline loves the furry, little rat, especially since it does not smell like the snake.
Can someone show this boy how to wear headphones???
Madeline LOVES her grandma.
This is what Matt calls forced family fun time. Mommy decides that we need to bond as a family even though it's only 30 outside. So we all pile on jackets, walk to the park, stay there 2 minutes because we are already frozen, and return home as icicles and grumpy because we are so cold. But we have bonded!!! :)
I just love this face.
When they are getting along, i.e., when Ryan is not hitting or kicking his sister, they are so cute together. In this picture Madeline is pointing everything in the exhibit out to Ryan and he's commenting with "oh yeah", "yes", "okay", "bird" and that's about it.
