Starting her a little early I think!

This morning we enjoyed breakfast at the hotel.  It was a nice buffet and kids eat free!  We requested a late check out so we could go to the pool after we ate.  After a quick pool visit we got ready for the Children's Museum.  We debated between the museum and the aquarium. After talking to a friend that frequents Chattanooga we decided on the museum.  It helped that this is what Luke picked, too.  I think it was the best choice.  The kids loved it!  It was very hands on with lots of activities for both kids.  Katherine loved the toddler area with a play kitchen, tree house, etc and Luke enjoyed the more advanced exhibits.  There was a Tinker Toy area that was cool as well as a roof top activity area.  Luke gave us a little scare when he slipped away from us momentarily.  I panicked and immediately found an employee to help us.  She got on the handheld to all the employees and he was located (by Paul) in just a couple of minutes.  He never knew he was missing.  We gave him a long talk about not leaving us.  Even though it was short lived I was scared.  I think he understood the severity of what happened and stuck right by us the rest of the time.

We stayed there for a couple of hours and then grabbed a burger at Five Guys before we got on the road toward home.  It was a quick trip back and we were home by mid-afternoon.  Paul and I had a burst of energy and immediately started laundry, cleaning and washing the cars.  Not really sure what got in to us, but I am glad it did.  It will make Monday night a little easier tomorrow!
