Our Day with the Dinosaurs

Today we loaded up the kids and headed to Pittsburgh to go to the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. Our kids love it. The first time we took them I was worried it would all be too big for them and they wouldn't like anything but the Dinosaurs (which are all real dinosaur skeletons found in the Carnegie Quaries....no replicas here), but they really liked it.

Before we explored the museum we thought it would be a good idea to feed them. I had read on a family fun in Pittsburgh site that LuLu's Noodles was kid friendly. It was so cool. A true chinese noodle restaurant (just like Kung Fu Panda according to Toby) where you placed your order at the counter and then got a huge amount of food delivered to your table. The kids loved it. Toby, wanting to do it just right, asked for chopsticks for everyone. Greg didn't fare so well but he had soup. I did okay but Toby mastered them in a few tries. He ate his whole meal with them. We will definately be going there the next time we are in Oakland.

The Kiddos ahd a blast. This time they liked even more of it than they did in May. They loved the dinos but they also like the Artic World, American Indian, and Animals of the World exhibits. It was too cool to see them get so excited even with things they couldn't interact with. Enjoy the photos.
