You-see-EM!

Monday is the "free" day at the Macon Museum of Science and Art. Don't let the fancy name fool you, this really is a pretty lousy museum, lol. Aiden can't say the word "museum," it always comes out sounding like "you-see-EM!" lol. But it's something free to do in town that is air-conditioned and somewhat educational, so we usually take advantage of it!

They have an exhibit right now on the human body, with little stations to learn about different parts of the body and what they do. Aiden REALLY gets into this exhibit. It's been up all summer, so he's seen it a handful of times. Today he completely took the lead, telling me what he was doing and looking at. He especially cracked me up on the "smelling station." There are a bunch of bottles with different scents inside them, and you squeeze the bottles while sniffing at the top and then try to guess the scent. He has no idea what different scents are called, so they all smelled "pretty." Too cute:)

Looking at the "Medicine or Candy?" station (he thinks they are all candy, of course!)
