Viva Wonderlab!

Whenever we are in Bloomington, we always stop by Wonderlab, the science museum in Bloomington for children. Louise, the great mother of Harry, has helped build Wonderlab into what it is today. Currently, they have a fantastic building in downtown Bloomington and Tyler always has a blast running around to all the different exhibits.

This past weekend, there was a special event going on at Wonderlab called "Viva Wonderlab!" Grandma and Grandpa came with us and we all had a lot of fun learning new things! It was especially fun with all the different exhibits they had set up. Frank got inside a body bubble, Grandpa ripped the tablecloth from under a place setting, I touched snake skin, and Grandma had fun watching the hot air balloon exhibit. On top of all that, Tyler went bowling with dry ice, froze a Popsicle with liquid nitrogen, made a bag of green slime out of Borax, built a rocket out of Alka-Seltzer and a film canister, and froze bubbles with dry ice.

Frank took this great picture of me with my little guy. We have had a lot of fun playing together over the past few weeks!
Yummy! Tyler eating his liquid nitrogen frozen Popsicle.
Getting ready to bowl with dry ice. He was given a glove to wear to keep his hand safe. The ice was very slippery and he never touched it without that glove (thank goodness!).
Every year we go to the museum, and every year we watch as Ty runs from the dinosaur! This year he walked right up and stood under it and followed the directions it gave-- it told Ty that he was 3 feet, 2 inches tall!
Another first for Ty-- he attempted to climb up the climbing apparatus that scales the indoor part from floor to ceiling. He got about 1/3 of the way up and then wanted to come down.
