Dora!


The other day I received an email from the Children's museum (one that goes out to all the members) and it said if you reply to this email and you are one of the first 100 to reply you are invited to come and meet Dora. Well I thought that sounded terrific. I replied and was in the top 100 so we were invited to go on Friday morning. They said to get there at 11:00. Brian took an early lunch break and met us down there. We were so excited. Well I have to say I was excited. I don't think Lauren really even cared. At this stage of her life she doesn't even know Dora all that well. I thought once we were there she would really get in to it. I was wrong. I was wrong b/c there was a line that zig zagged in and out full of parents and children. We waited and waited (45 mins in total). Lauren was not sure what we were doing. In addition she decided she would poop in her diaper while we were standing in the line. Finally we made it up to meet Dora (and Diego). Lauren didn't want to get near them. The picture above is the only one we got and also the closest Lauren got to them. I have to say we did get one thing out of it. A lesson learned about taking 2 year olds to stand in long lines to meet strange people. Don't do it!

LOL. This is so true. I really would like to take the boys to the Smithsonian Museum in D.C. to see the dinosaurs...but...well...oh...it sure does sound like a lot of work. :)
