Museum trip.



Before the holiday, I took Lila for her first visit to the Natural History Museum, where Aunt Claude has given us the great gift of a family membership. We met up with Lila's friends Arlo and Sarah, and they all got to run around like ninnies in the cavernous exhibit rooms. It made quite an impression on Lila.

For those who haven't been, the museum showcases many of the animals of the world stuffed in lifelike dioramas. They line large rooms that are dimly lit and Lila just went from one to the next exclaiming, "Ooh! Lookit dat! Mommy, what dat?"




Not the greatest pictures, but we'll definitely be going back for more.




And Arlo (seen here in repose on the museum floor) lives across the street!

love the natural history museum, especially the animal rooms - so what sound does a water buffalo make....
