Pretend City


A few weeks ago we took a trip out to Irvine's imaginarium museum, Pretend City. Isaac absolutely loved it and could have stayed til it closed. It was the perfect place for any little kid with a huge imagination! The place was smaller than I had envisioned but definitely met my expectations. It truly was a kid sized city. From ATMs to mail boxes to road signs to cars that the kids could drive (peddle with their feet) on the roads... This place had it all! Isaac enjoyed all the "boy" activities the city had to offer but didn't care for the "girl" areas. Like the craft studio, the grocery store, and the little cafe. He was all about the police and fire station, the construction site, and the farm. Parker was alert and completely simulated the whole time too. There was no way he was going to take a nap! It was hard enough to get him to nurse with all that was going on. After about two hours Shaun and I were done, not to mention hungry. But, no way was Isaac going to let us leave... Next time, we better bring more food!

Ladies and Gentlemen... I now present... Isaac Higgins!

Daddy time

Mommy time

 
Can we fix it? Yes we can!

Always good for a laugh

Even if being a firefighter, fisherman, construction worker, dancer, police officer, beach patrol, farmer, valet driver, and chicken watcher doesn't work out for Isaac, he can still always count on mommy and daddy being 100% proud of him!

I'm gonna have to take Mateo there! It looks like a place that 2 year olds would love!
