Dad, Mom, and Dom Day

Yesterday we spent the day hanging out as a family of 3.  We took probably our last outing of just Bruce, Dominik, and I.  We went to the Children's Museum of Phoenix.  I don't know why we haven't gone there before, but that place was AWESOME!  It is 3 levels and has so much to do, granted Bruce did most of the playing due to my huge pregnant belly, but we had so much fun!  Just seeing Dominik's face as he was playing was the best.  Some of the activities was a grocery store, a restaurant, a racecar track, a bike car wash, a craft room (which we peeked in, but avoided because it looked too messy and Dominik was wearing a new outfit), a noodle forest, and just tons of things to touch/play with. The highlight of the museum was the 3 story play/climbing area.  We saved it for the end since it was near the entrance/exit.  This thing had everything: a bathtub, a spaceship, a doghouse, a pirate ship.  I could go on and on.  Dominik had fun in it and Bruce would call me from different locations so Dominik could try and find me.  It was pretty cute. 

After the museum we decided to grab a bite to eat downtown.  Now we don't go to downtown Phoenix very often, except for sporting events, and even then we don't wander very far.  We came across the Shops at the Arizona Center.  It was a fun little shopping area.  And we spotted a Hooters.  Since the Nebraska game was going to be on shortly, we decided to go there.  And I also suggested it because it was Dominik's last day as a "free man" a.k.a. only child.  haha.  All of the girls loved him in there.  He was loving it too, waving to everyone as they walked by.  Our waitress even brought him some balloons.  He was definitely spoiled.  Before we left we made sure to get a picture with some Hooters girls, this will definitely be going in his scrapbook!
