After quite a late morning (J2 got up close to 10am!), we headed to the Liberty Science Center for the day. All the obnoxious school trips notwithstanding, we had a great time. He spent most of the time in the toddler play room, which has a rice table, a ball machine, and a build-your-own car race track. I was able to pull him away to see the Eat and Be Eaten animal exhibit, which I really like. Then, we swung through a communication exhibit, which had a movie about the news and sourcing. (some day, I'd like to moozy through it for my own knowledge.) J2 turned to me and asked if he could watch "the daddy movie," so I asked him what that was; his response was that "there were lots of daddies in the movie [news anchors and reporters] and that there were no mommy movies on right now." After a little snack, we visited the construction exhibit, which had a Muppets movie and a Spiderman movie clip showing the use of skyscrapers. He liked that, and he enjoyed building his own skyscraper with the foamy blocks we have at home (and that he never touches).

Was able to nurse Elise a couple of times in relative privacy.
