Ellie Goes to the Museum

The Children's Museum of Phoenix is where this family of three went. I'm so behind and slow with my updating, but Ellie's FIRST birthday was already THREE weeks over a MONTH ago. (Slow down time.) For Ellie's birthday I wanted to make it something special, even if she wouldn't remember. She's my baby and I wanted her to have a good time for her special day, because she is a very special little girl. So, we had a birthday weekend celebration. The Saturday before her birthday (her birthday was on a Monday) we took her to eat some Italian pizza and to play at the Children's Museum of Phoenix. Mom and Dad loved the Italian place (Bianco's Pizzeria), and definitely recommend it. Unfortunately this was the most difficult time we've ever had with Ellie while eating out. She did not want to sit still and eat; she just wanted to be outside playing. So we got it boxed up and left and ate outside. Then we headed over to the museum. I think she was a bit over overwhelmed with all that was going on there, but she ended up loving it; especially when we took her to the "Under 3" area.

The museum was fantastic! I can't wait to take her back in the future. We just might have to buy a membership so we can go often.
