We ventured into Seattle to explore the Science Center. Caramel wanted to go to the Butterfly room (love it!) first so we headed there. On the way there looking at all the other bugs Caramel was grossed out, a change since the last time we visited. Once in the Butterfly room, they kids had a blast learning with the info sheets and nature around them. Then near the end, a butterfly was zooming around and landed on Caramel's shoulder. She was not excited about his and demanded it off immediately. I picked up her sleeve and gave it a little shake, it finally flew away. The butterfly flew towards me and feeling something on my ear, I freaked out a bit shaking around. After that we had to go straight to the exit because it was more then Caramel expected.
There was a lady presenting about tricks used to make things seem magical. The crowd wasn't big and my kids were the only ones willing to assist the lady. The first trick Caramel handed her a quarter then the lady said her hand was warming up and showed a bent quarter. She explained this trick was called "Sleight of Hand." Caramel thought she was done and walked back to her seat with the bent quarter. After stepping off stage, Caramel popped the quarter right into her mouth! I was like..What? Then quietly told Caramel to get that quarter out of her mouth. Crazy girl. Caramel handed the mouthed quarter back to the lady. So random.
When Rhett went up to help as soon as he stepped on stage his hand went into his mouth and stayed there until he was down. Even when he talked he kept his hand in his mouth. He has never done that before in front of people. Guess he was a little shy and needed to put his hand somewhere.
We also learned about Happy Poops, Caramel was all ears when I read that title in the Health Body section of the Science Center. You need fiber for Happy Poops and pasta was the correct match.
One morning when I was trying to get things ready to leave. Caramel was getting her own breakfast cereal. She ended up spilling all the milk which was a first. I was feeding Myles so wasn't going to move. As the milk spilled from the table to the floor, it started to drip from the cracks. Caramel got her bowl and started catching the drips. Then said "Look it's like a cow." Glad she actually got some milk in her bowl since that was the last of it. Funny girl.
We went to a church playgroup in the gym. Rhett wanted a snack, so I gave him a muffin and told him to sit until done. Seconds later he came to me and said "Mom, I'm chocking." Out came the muffin mixed with some other wonderful stuff right into my hand. At least he knew what was happening.
