Life and Science

Even though the weather channel promised us a slightly warmer day today, that didn't seem to happen. We planned an indoor family day at the Museum of Life and Science in Durham. Caleb is finally old enough to enjoy a lot of the exhibits there. Today was a busy day, but that didn't stop us from having a great time.

 

Caleb enjoyed the infant/toddler area with its slides and gadgets.

He enjoyed the outdoor music zone with plentiful chimes, cowbells, and drums.

And he enjoyed the farm area, although we credit his new fear of ducks to the Museum.

Their duck seemed to have anger issues while we were visiting. 

The goats and cows pleasantly ignored us.

Finally we visited the Butterfly House. The tropical temperatures were a nice break from the cold outside. Caleb had such a great time pointing out all the things he knows, like butterflies, water, birds, and trees.

The insect room was gross. Lots of spiders and other creepy crawlies. Ick.

Sorry to end on that disgusting photo. That's just how it works sometimes. Sweet dreams.
