Adventures in Omaha...

Scott received a picture book of Omaha from his colleagues at work as a goodbye gift.  I was flipping through it the other day and saw lots of neat pictures of things we've never been too since being in Omaha.  I wanted to try some out before we leave here and fill up our days while Scott's away.  So I found this place called Fontenelle Forest thats a boardwalk trail through this forest area and they happen to have a dinosaur exhibit through September.  It looked perfect!  So with a map in Tyson's hand, he led us on our tour of the dinosaurs.  The trail was about a mile long in total and really kid friendly!  Tyson loved it and keeps asking to go back. Camille loved running around trying to keep up with him on the trail.  Here's the first dinosaur we discovered.


Checking the map to fin our next destination...once he got to a dinosaur, he didn't really want to stay around and look, he wanted to hurry up and find the next one! His little checklist!

They had lots of benches around to sit and enjoy nature, which we didn't really do, with the map nazi leading us! I was lucky to get this pic!


They also had lots of fun exhibits and kid-interactive things inside.  I about died laughing when I saw Tyson put this outfit on! This kid cracks me up.  Camille had to join in the fun with big brother. Love this picture!

I threw in this picture of Camille falling asleep while eating yogurt. So sweet!Camille is developing quite the personality.  She is like a second mom to Tyson.  Tells him to put his shirt on or to finish his dinner and then tell him "good job" when he does. She yells at him if he is singing too loudly. She will sing him a song and rub his back before bed time and tell him goodnight (so cute).  She will definitely let him know when he is bugging her, which is a least a couple times a day and I feel like a referee sometimes.  But Tyson is the one who can get her to laugh the loudest and the most and she loves trying to do the things he does.  I love those times!
