Science Centre

Took my two, plus M. to the Science Centre on Sunday...too tired tonight to write too much ...but we had a great time!

M. was just too cute - she had a ball in the area they have there for the younger kids - especially in the room where she could ~play~ fake guitars and star on the TV screen. I think she could have quite cheerfully stayed in that one little room for the entire day if we hadn't dragged her off to other things.

The funniest bit wasn't at the Science Centre, though. It was when we took her for dinner at Swiss Chalet. She read the menu all buy her very own self, and decided she wanted the kids' combo with a thigh & a drumstick, which came with fries, supposedly a toy, her Shirley Temple(s), and a dessert - an ice cream sundae, or worm pudding, or Skittles or M & Ms.

She got her food - and the entire time she was eating, she kept asking about her drumstick - when was that going to come?

"It's right there - you're eating it"

"Auntie Lee, did I eat enough to get my drumstick now?"

"You ate your drumstick."

Etc, etc.

It took us a while to figure out that she had eaten not a drumstick, but a LEG - and she still wanted her DRUMSTICK....

to add insult to injury, they were out of toys, too!

We ended up getting her Skittles (instead of the toy) ...and stopping at a variety store for her DRUMSTICK - after she'd eaten her chicken LEG :)
