On Wednesday we went to the Skagit Children's Museum. I think this may be Clementine's favorite place in the world. There is so much for her to do there--and it's seems to be designed with her in mind.
She loves this semi truck. So many buttons to push, she loves steering the wheel, all those nooks and crannies to sneak into. She was wild eyed in there!
She also loved the fish. Every time she ran past she'd say "Hey fishies" and wave or blow a kiss. This girl loves fish!
This part was a new favorite. It wasn't there last time we visited! It's basically just a booth with an airshoot and different types/sizes of balls spinning in the air. Clementine was amazed! At one point another kid came up to have a look and squealed "LOOK! MAGIC!" I'm pretty sure that's what Clem would have said if she knew about magic.
Look at her tiptoes!
Another big favorite is the "store". The museum does an incredible job of getting all kinds of different types of play represented. In this middle area, there are all these bins of plastic food, shopping baskets and a check out register. Clementine loved the buttons on the register. She played here for a LOOOOONG while.
Back in the truck:
We were at the museum for a few hours and her energy started to dwindle. We headed over to the "tot lot" farm where she played some low-key activities. She really loved the rocking horse.

On Thursday we met up with Cam for a picnic with his company.
Clementine got to take this golf cart out for a ride. Later, she found a highlighter pen on the floor of this golf cart and got a few good squibbles on her nose! Little stinker!
Here she is after the picnic. See the highlighter marks? She is also covered in ice cream! I guess you can measure the fun we had at the picnic by the mess made on her face.

*****Today, Friday, was a rainy day. But we didn't let that spoil our fun. We played play-doh (she is finally getting the idea that play-doh is not a snack) and she helped me make Carrot Cupcakes.
I am so glad we got to have this bonus five day vacation together. I really loved spending this extra time with my girl. Unfortunately, my house is a mess and I have done exactly nothing in the yard this whole week. Monday will mean back to school for Clem and back to housework for me!
