Children’s Museum

So, we’re starting to get bogged down a little with all of these trips to and from Riley’s and now Shriner’s in Chicago too so last week we decided to make the best of the fact that we were in the lovely city of Indianapolis!

The Children’s Museum in Indy gives a free year membership to foster families with a current license so we headed on over there after Laila’s check up with her urologist.  It’s super fun and we can’t wait to go back because there’s so much to do and we only had the afternoon because our nurse Sharon was with us and needed to get back.  ps – how fun is it for her to “work” while we go to the museum?!? but I’m definitely thankful she was with!

Oh, that place is AMAZING! How neat that you're able to get a membership for free this year! It definitely looks like the kids (and you...) enjoyed the afternoon.

The pictures of all three of your adorable children are awesome:) I'm sure each visit will be just as fun as the one before since they have so many different things to do...

Wow! Being a foster family has its perks, eh? :) That's wonderful. And how nice that Sharon could come with you so you could be mom with all three of them. Nice to see you having some fun too. :)

Can I come to that museum? It looks like fun!
