so after the race, we headed back to the room so the runners could get cleaned up for the rest of our fun day.....the children's museum!! the walk was a little longer than the girls would have liked....and since i forgot to bring strollers, they had to walk the whole way! oops! but they survived and it was totally, 100% worth it!! we all had an absolute blast!! oh and on saturday mornings they have a farmers market all around the capitol square, and let me tell ya, it's by far the biggest farmers market i've ever seen in my entire life! you can't even imagine the vendors and shoppers! it's absolute chaos!! very cool, but very crazy! we had to walk thru part of it to get to the museum! i wish we could have shopped a little, but the museum was way better!!
there was an entire section on the roof of the building that had a mini farm, gardens, and many more fun activities!
the view of lake mendota!
the kids checking out the view!
some crazy monkey bar thing! pretty cool!
a view of the capitol building
taking a little rest on the animals! lol!

painting on the glass! i pesonally think this is one of the coolest things at children's museums! i wish we had one at our house! lol!
haylie and matt trying out the hamster wheel!
such a happy girl!!
just outside the entrance!
swing me, swing me!!
relaxing on the....turtle?
just having a nap! i think we should also get these for our house! how cool would that be?! they look so comfy!
clearly nick was worn out too! haha!
i'm telling ya, children's museums have a way of just sucking the life out of ya!! i am always exhausted after spending a day there!
the girls tried the wheel by themselves! certainly much easier with an adult, but they eventually got it! :) and didn't even get hurt! yay!
baking some pies and pizzas for....
....their loyal customers! we spent a lot of time in this area!
even the big kids got to play!
this is for my parents.....refrigerators in the wall.....i bet if they took the doors off it would look like your back garage!! lol! just kidding! ya know i love ya! (but it still cracks me up!)
and once again....big kid fun!
even matt got in on the fun!!
there were super awesome sayings all over....i truly thought i got pics of more, but obviously not! (baby brain!)
matt and i both tried it with the girls, so of course we made nick try it too!
you would never know, but these pics are all out of order. it makes me absolutely crazy, but i really didn't feel like taking the time to rearrange them all to be in order! so you're just gonna have to deal with it.....ok fine, i am just gonna have to deal with it! baby jo has really relaxed some crazy parts of my brain! lets hope it stays that way after he or she is born! ha!
