Bay Area Discovery Museum

I finally took Ryker to the museum today. It was a drizzly, dreary day here and we had a great time. The museum is for kids 8 y.o. and younger and it is all touchable and interactive. Ryker got to jump in the pond (a kind of waterbed), help plastic fish swim up stream, crawl through lots of tunnels, make waves, steer the boat, climb the pirate lookout. We will definitely go back!

Halloween

Ryker and I picked Andrew up at the airport. He was returning from a visit to Keelin and arrived back just in time for Halloween. Ryker did NOT want to put his monkey costume on. I bribed him into it with a piece of chocolate. He was a little confused by the "trick or treat" thing at first. THEN he got it! I turned the table on him and had him help pass out candy. He liked that part just as much and gave everyone a big handful.
