Science City

This past year, we got a membership at Union Station which includes unlimited admission to Science City. One of my favorite things about Chris going to school until one is that we still have our afternoons free. Often we will get together with friends or play outside (if the weather ever gets above 20!) but it is also nice to have Science City as an option. And on a weekday afternoon, there is hardly anyone there so we practically have the place to ourselves. Two of Christopher's favorite rooms in the astronaut training center and the citiblocs construction room. They are right next to each other which is perfect because Chris will often practice landing the space shuttle on the simulator they have and then go and build his own shuttle out of these blocks. They have hundreds of the blocks so you can imagine what can be built! In the picture above he is sitting in the pilot's seat of his shuttle and here are a few more pictures of our creations. Mommy gets in on the action too!
