Natural History Museum

We went to the Natural History Museum Saturday. Before we left, we told Ben we were going to see dinosaurs and he was very excited. However, once we got there, he told us he was afraid of the dinosaurs and didn't want to get too close to them. Unfortunately, even though after a while he didn't seem to mind them, we had to spend about 30minutes before bed time reassuring him that the dinosaurs were too big to get in our car, the front door or anywhere else in the house.
I was excited to see a facial reconstruction exhibit. I think Ben was a little bored with it. This is where I found my boys.
Ben learned when his birthday is a few days ago and has reminded us many times since then. We usually get the full run down of how he'll get three candles, a birthday hat and cake etc. Last night while we were discussing birthdays, he surprised us by spelling his name for us. We spell it out all the time, but this was the first time we realized it stuck! Here's Ben showing off a few things and Sam getting in the way:

Sam is doing great with rolling all over the place, but every now and then he gets a little stuck!
