Smithsonian Natural History Museum

On our visit to DC, I took the kids to the Smithsonian. Cooper, of course, loved the dinosaurs (rrrrrrr!) Ava, meanwhile, wasn't very taken by them. In fact, I think she was a little intimidated/frightened by their size (sort of like how she's scared of Chuck E. Cheese and Santa!) But, once we entered the Butterfly Exhibit, she came to life! She loved seeing all the beautiful live butterflies flying around, their sizes and colors! It was great!
