Day of Discoveries

We spent the day at the Discovery Center, which is a hands on children's museum in M'boro. It was a great day, but we did have a major mishap. Everything was going great.... Elias AND Gus were running around touching and playing with all the exhibits. Then we decided to go outside to see the spring and wetlands. All was perfect until Elias took off running full speed and slipped on a pile of slimey sludge! He fell all the way down on his back and even hit his head! He was covered in that nasty stuff and was mad! Of course I didn't think to pack an extra set of clothes. We proceeded to strip down our child until he was left with only his diaper, shoes, and hat. Gus went down a few blocks to the salvation army and got Elias something to wear so we could finish the day. I took him (wearing only his diaper) back inside. Gus came back with a yellow girls shirt size 3-6 months and a pair of navy shorts. He looked pretty funny in his tight little yellow shirt, but we refused to let it end our day! We had our picnic, only to find Gus had forgot to pack bread for his sandwich! I thought he had packed it, and he thought I had packed it. Oh well, we made a few discoveries today: always pack extra clothes and extra bread! We all had a great time.
