The Children's Museum of Pittsburgh

The Children's Museum of Pittsburgh turned out to be the highlight of the trip, short of seeing Angelia & Brent.  :)


Aaron loved being a pilot or
enjoying any of the modes of
transportation.

He loved the Smart Car too.
 
Kirsten loved being an airplane pilot as well.

Anything that involves movement
is Kirsten's activity.  This is
how she acquired the nickname,
Bouncer. 
 

Josh initially thought the museum was going to be too "young" for him, but soon found his niche in the building area. 

The finished products, a desk & chair.  Good job Josh!
 

 Aaron was the product tester.  He happily approved of Josh's project.



The big hit of the day was the pipe & pond area.


Aaron & Kirsten donned the little raincoats that they had for the kids. They played & played until it was sadly time to go home.





I felt like Angelia & Alexa bonded on this trip. Alexa thought she was hilarious & would light up every time she saw her just like she does for Josh.  Angelia was so helpful in feeding Alexa which can be the most difficult task we have with her. Thanks Angelia.
Angelia put the little raincoat & "required" blue crocs on the baby & off they went into the water area.
Alexa loves water just like Angelia & both had a fun time.


Afterward, they have wall dryers which they put to good use. 
 The baby thought that was way funny!

Do they look cute with a baby or what?  
Not time for that yet, but I'll be so excited when it is.


Josh & Brent had to join in the fun as well.


My favorite picture & memory of this trip was watching Angelia & Josh together. It's a rarity to see them doing an activity together since Angelia's married, but even at this moment it brings me to tears just seeing the picture. There is no better gift a parent can give a child than a sibling, & I'm so glad they will always have each other.
