Adventures, Swimming and Trains

This weekend was a fun, busy family weekend of just what the title of this blog is . . . adventures, swimming and trains!!

Saturday morning we woke up and decided to take an adventure on a nature path by our house with everyone (Naismith included). We picked up rocks, sticks and walked thru lots of mud. Cohen loved it and got tired towards the end and needed to be carried!!

After our adventure we went home for lunch and nap and then went swimming that afternoon at the indoor aquatic center. I have really been working hard on keeping Cohen in the water during the winter so there is no question when summer comes around and we spend hours at the pool and weeks at Lake Michigan. He loved it! Loved watching all the kiddos and splashing mom!

Then on Sunday we decided to head to Kansas City to Union Station where there are tons of
exhibits and things to do - especially for children! First we went into the train exhibit. Cohen was amazed and just kept running from one area to another! Then we went into Science City. I can't believe we have been back in KS for almost 2 years and hadn't hit that on up yet! He loved it and loved checking out all the different learn/play areas. His favorite was the helicopter!

After Science City we walked over to Fritz's which is a fun burger and fry joint and a train brings you your meal on a train. Here is our little conductor making an order:

Needless to say, he was exhausted by the time we got back home!
