Music Class

Kate absolutely loves our music class at the Children's Museum. It's every Thursday at 10 am, and she has so much fun dancing, playing the instruments (bells, egg shakers, rhythm sticks, etc.) and seeing the other kids. She especially loves it that Adelaide is there, and she has taken quite a motherly interest in the "baby" as she calls anyone under the age of five. If Adelaide ever tries to book it for the door, Kate looks at me with a worried frown, points at Adelaide, and cries out, "Baby!" It's like she wants to be sure that Adelaide doesn't get away :)

We always have a lot of fun afterward, too, since I let her play in the museum for about half an hour. She has so much fun exploring the water area (definitely her favorite part), going down the slide, playing in the huts with the drums, etc. Afterward, we usually go to lunch somewhere. This week, we went to Frida's, which probably my favorite restaurant in Madison. Kate is such an amazing eater; she wolfs down Mexican rice and enchiladas better than some adults do! She may not be the best sleeper, but at least we hit the "good eater" jackpot!

Here are some shots of her before we left for music class. Doesn't she look like such a little schoolgirl?
