M did a chemistry report on how baking soda works in baked goods. She made Honey Comb Candy to demonstrate the results of adding baking soda to foods. It was a really cool idea and a very quick project. Instant results are a wonderful thing when it comes to last minute science projects.
This month the topic was geology and T and M made models of the earth's interior and fossils during their class time. I'll try to post their geology science project when we get them finished.
We've been very busy lately and I decided to take a mini-vacation to Indy. Dear Hubby was there for a conference and we drove to meet up with him so we could have some family time on Friday night. We stayed at a hotel that had an indoor pool so we could let the kids swim (Physical Education). They really enjoyed it. It was Eli's first time swimming and he loved it.
Aunt Susan, Uncle Brian, Aunt Meg, and some of the cousins were able to come and swim with us too. We had a very nice time visiting with them.
A friend of ours from college, Jeremy, also was able to drop by and eat dinner with us at the hotel. Jeremy introduced Dear Hubby and I while we were at college. Thanks Jeremy! We love you.
After our hotel stay, we went to the Children's Museum. We were able to see some of the exhibits before having to leave due to R getting sick in the lobby. That was on Saturday. Whatever she picked up, she has successfully passed it on to all of us, except for the baby.
What little we were able to see of the museum was good. They had a traveling Barbie exhibit that the girls really enjoyed. It had a very cute little run way where the kids could dress up and pretend to be a fashion model. Theodore liked being the photographer.
The kids also liked the ice cream soda shop and the Egyptian coffee house. Playing dress-up and restaurant is always a my kids' favorite. The carousel was the most requested attraction, so we made sure to ride it.
