Discovery Center

Two weeks ago we all flew to Chicago then drove to Rockton Il to visit with dans grandpa who was turning 90. We also had a family reunion there as well. it was great to see so many family members.
One of the first days there we went to Rockford a neighboring town. While In Rockford one day we went to the childrens Discovery Center. The had a new tot spot they had just built and it was great. a huge water station, papa johns pizza station, trains, play house, a car to work on, a cane to operate and many other cool things including a baby spot. it was specifically designed for infant through 18 months,. it was cute. while we were there the lady to gave this as a "gift" was there too and bella was over there playing and she found great joy watching a baby play in her spot. Also the local paper and news were there covering it. they took bellas picture and then a few days later there she was in the paper. later in the week family members from the area kept bringing it over to show us. I teased saying we can not get a way from the paparazzi even on vacation.
