Children's History Museum

Today we went to occupational therapy and Mrs. Ruthie tested both of them again to see where they were developmentally.  I can hardly believe it, but they both test two months older than they are!!!  We have come a long way baby.  Two years ago, they were about 9 months to a year behind in speech, fine motor skills and the like.  I really don't know how we have gotten to where we are, but I sure am glad for the help from Huntsville Hospital therapy department!  After therapy, we went to a Children's History Museum.  I found it great fun and the kids did too!  You can see Chloe measuring "beans" out for the people traveling west in the mercantile store.  We also learned how to pack dishes in barrels with straw to protect them.  We "cooked" a meal in the log cabin and played with toys that children would have played with in the olden days.  We also had a blast dressing up in frontier clothes that the women of the time made for their families.  We all enjoyed the hats and long dresses!
