Betty Brinn Childrens Museum

Last Monday on day 3 of our vacation time we took Elly to the Betty Brinn Childrens Museum in downtown Milwaukee.  Just like the zoo she was a little overwhelmed by her surroundings at 1st.  She started to settle in as the day went on.  It seemed she may have been a little young to understand some of the things there.  She did find a few favorite spots.  She loved jumping on the peddles by the Geyser.  Which made the Geyser work and light up.  She also really enjoyed working on the car with Daddy.  It was a new experience for all 3 of us.  At least now we know what to expect for the next time.  We had to take the pictures with our blackberries as we did not bring the camera.  Here are a few of the better shots.  Click HERE to see all the pictures from the day

Waukesha Fair

Last Friday on the 2nd day of our vacation we too Elly to the Waukesha County Fair.  We meet up with Grandma and Grandpa there as well.  We saw the Tiger’s perform 1st.  Then went on to see all the farm animals.  One of the favorites was getting to ride the Pony.  She smiled and giggled the whole time.  It was at the fair that we discovered that Elly loves corn on the cob. Mommy barely got to eat any of her own corn.  After dinner we of course had to go play games, Where Elly won her 1st Goldfish which is if course she named Nemo (side note, She shook the bag a lot and the fish only lasted 3 days, we have since replaced him!).  Below are some pictures form the Day with a video of her riding the Pony after.  Click HERE for all other pictures of the day

Zoo Trip

Last Thursday on our 1st day of Vacation we took Elly to the Zoo.  She was a little overwhelmed with the animals and people at 1st.  Not really sure what to do.  Didn’t really look at the animals a while lot.  Would see a monkey and immediately say she wanted to see more monkeys without really watching the one in front of her.  She did settle down and get more comfortable as the day went on.  The big hits of the day was the playground area inside the childrens farm area, along with the goat feeding area.  We spent a great deal of time in these 2 spots.  Here are  few of the pictures from the Day along with a video at the end of post.  You can see all Zoo pictures HERE
