Mini Sean and Mommy Day

Flight Museum here we come!
Blue Angels~

He sat down quietly and was watching the video on the in-flight screen.


At the second floor of the original Boeing factory.


Back in time, they built the airplens in this very barn.

Eating lunch at the Chinese buffet place near Aly's school.


Last Wednesday (yes, I am behind in posts) Sean and I had an opportunity to spend half day together doing fun things, just two of us. Jessica, the OT, was sick and Paul was kind enough to let us cancel the ABA session at home at 12:00 pm so that I can spend more time out with Sean. I asked him if he wanted to go to the aquarium or Museum of Flight and he chose the airplanes over sea creatures. Getting there was a disaster since I mistakenly took 405 to Renton. I had to cut across unfamiliar neighborhoods in Renton to get to the I-5 side. Eventually, after talking disapprovingly to myself for about 20 minutes, we were able to reach the destination.


We came here with Jiji and grandma a couple of years ago and he remembered it. He was very curious asking all kinds of questions looking at antique to modern planes. He particularly liked sitting in the real US Air plane that is displayed in the middle. The museum is big with four areas. He liked looking at the war time planes with unique markings to make them identifiable by their own military. He is a bit young still to learn the history about WWI and WWII, but he was interested in Japanese war planes displayed there. He has so much to learn~


We hurriedly left the museum in an hour and half since we had to grab lunch and pick up Alyson at her school at 1:30 pm in Bellevue. We drove down in mad rain and with all the noise, I didn't notice he fell asleep in the backseat. I gently woke him up not to trigger his tantrum and he was fine waking up and walking into the restaurant. We ate in about 20 minutes and picked up Miss Aly at the Japanese school. What a day! His day didn't end there though because he went to Lakeside for social skills therapy. He is a busy five year-old. He had a really good time though and I was glad we could squeeze in Mommy and Sean time in our busy day.
