Oak Lawn Children's Museum

Today Jay and I took Jack to the Oak Lawn's Children's Museum. What a darling little place....and best of all, it is only a stone's throw away from our house in "downtown" Oak Lawn. Jack had a ball with his Mommy and Daddy! We played with the trains, water falls, indoor sandboxes, pretend food at the market, puppets, indoor playgrounds, camping equipment, veterinary accessories, dentistry seats and accessories, etc., etc. We had so much fun playing and learning together, but best of all, it was just nice to get out and do something fun as a family. If I watch another Blue's Clues lately, I might go crazy! It is easy to just get stuck in a mundane routine that can quickly turn into a rut, especially this time of year. And I can't believe I am saying this because I am a BIG fan of routines, but I must admit that it is nice to break them every now and again (but then get right back into them the next day- HA!)

We are so fortunate to have each other. It was really nice to take time out of our busy schedules for "play time" at the museum today. I could not imagine a better way to spend my Sunday afternoon other than with my two very favorite boys. It really does not matter what we do.....

Here are some shots from our Sunday, FUN day at the museum!
