February - Indoor Play Days

We are trying to stay warm in 10-20 degree weather. Last Thursday we had a playdate at an indoor play area in Old Saybrook. Edison is REALLY into trucks. He has several books about trucks and is always pointing out the window while we're in the van and showing me all the cool trucks on the road. So, a real life school bus was a big hit.Here he is in the little kids' area. He has mastered the slide. Hopefully I can keep him in the good habit of not trying to climb up the slide.Another of our favorite places is the Mystic Aquarium. They have a really neat turtle - but Edison just likes climbing the display. Even though we are not quite ready for the picture, I like how this picture captures how tall Edison is starting to get - not a baby anymore!

He has also started to enjoy the touch tank now that he is tall enough to get his hands in the water. Just shells for now, but maybe he'll pick up a crab one of these days (maybe not if it means I'd have to pick it up and hand it to him...).


And he is a total ham for the camera.
