the blue blog archives: the love affair continues

Every new truck is like falling in love all over again. B fell for this truck yesterday at the little kidspace at Cosi, Columbus' huge science museum. They have tons of bouncy balls for throwing and rolling, a water area for splashing (complete with little raincoats!), and blocks for building. The kids had such a good time that we went back this morning.

All in all, I've been so impressed with Columbus and its various attractions that I'm a little smitten myself! And as far as knitting goes, I'm still ga-ga over my all season's cotton tank. I've made progress on the front and with a little luck should be able to finish it on the trip, so I can start on the yoke after we get back.

Wow ! Playtime !
Oliver's favourite vehicle game is when he and daddy play road crash with all his trucks. Guess who started that one. ;-]

How cute! Noel is exactly the same way with all his new trucks and cars (and trains and planes and boats). Your boys look like they are having so much fun...perhaps a side trip is in order the next time we visit Dave's family in Pittsburgh.

I'm loving the vacation updates! Vicarious vacationing for all of us stuck at home...;-)

i have a quite similar picture of my robin (now 17) i tried making trucks available to my daughter too, but she never fell in love with them.

i did part of my growing up in ohio (lancaster, which i think is fairly near columbus) i liked that ohio had all the seasons, but they were milder than michigan & minnesota where we also had lived.

What a cute boy/truck pic! :) The boys sure seem to have enjoyed their visit to the museum. Glad to hear the trip went well. Can't wait to see you back home with more knitting pics to show! ;)
