weekend enrichment

When asked what should we do this weekend, J always responds with "something enriching"... So, since it's been nice out and Baby AB likes getting out on excursions, we decided to head over to RISD's art museum for their FreeforAll Saturdays! The theme was styrofoam and they advertised that there would be puppets. We know that Aiden loooves laughing at puppets, so we figured he'd enjoy it... even though we are well aware that he can't quite appreciate an art museum quite yet. Although he did have moments where he seemed to really be examining things and letting his eyes feast on all the crazy patterns and designs.
We arrived about two hours before the Big Nazo puppet show was scheduled, but we managed to keep busy essentially playing in the museum... and just when Aiden started yawning, it was time to go outside for the show. As we were refreshed by the free Del's frozen lemonade, the crazy costume "puppet" show began! I wouldn't describe these as puppets, but Aiden's reaction was just as excited mixed in with sorta a skeptical stare. (You also get to see snippets of him practicing his new backward wave - He waved at the museum guard!)

Speedy video making is my nursing routine for Aiden. So, here is another view into Aiden's world:
