It’s a cool museum for kids and I would highly recommend heading out there if you’ve got some and are in the area. The Pompeii exhibit was a little tough for the kids, but was interesting for us.

This is just a few of the photos I took today – I won’t overwhelm everyone with 100′s of photos.

I uploaded all of the photos I took during the game from our insanely good 2nd row seats. We had a great view of the game and some of the action so close we could make calls before they were reviewed from the pictures (after the link below you can see them all.) Be warned — there’s about 150 pictures there so it might take a while to load. Despite wearing Redskins colors, the fans were pretty good to everyone and there were only two fights on our side of the dome.

He also crawls quite well now, moving to where he wants, when he wants. Occassionally, he will pull himself up to a standing position, although usually only to get his hands on small toys to put in his mouth. Christmas at Patty’s house was fun especially for the kids. Xavier is still working on his presents but has loved (and eaten) pretty much every piece of wrapping paper he can get his hands on. Erik and Pammy head back today. Rachel left this morning (with a wave from Xavier) and Chris and Steve left earlier this week. We took the boys down to the Chicago Children’s Museum earlier this week and the kids had a great time.
