Though we had a crazy week, the weekend was remarkably uneventful. Friday night we asked Monster if he wanted to go horseback riding on Saturday and he said yes, so we went to our normal time. He did ok, but got very upset rather quickly. First off, it was very cold and he wouldn't wear his hat or mittens, although he will normally wear them. More importantly, I don't think they do enough riding during his lessons. They do a lot of work with stretching and playing basketball, etc. (see previous blog on it). It seems to me that he really loves the actual riding part and he just doesn't get that much in this class. Mr. is going to try and find something else that let's Monster do more riding.
After riding, we decided to check out the Hartford Children's Museum. That was a lot of fun. It is the closest place I've seen to the Exploritorium in San Francisco that I've seen yet. He really enjoyed a lot of the activities there, including a really cool klaidiscope room (picture above). I know the video is dark, but Monster is making faces at himself in the mirror here:
