today is finally luke's birthday at traveltown in griffith park. james, julian & i and even aunt yolanda had been looking forward to going to this museum & celebrating with our friends for luke's birthday since rob, his dad told us about his birthday when we went to the LA Zoo last april... so you have an idea how much anticipation has built up... hehehe. the party was at 130pm & though julian hasn't taken a nap that day, he had a blast at the traveltown which is a museum of trains... there were the real trains, a trolley that we went a ride on too bust most of all, julian loved the modeltrains.
its funny because he kept on returning to it like 5 or 6 times during our whole trip to the museum. he didn't even notice when i left his side to kind of get some air from the cramped room where the trains were. that's how engrossed he was. he would scramble from one part of the display glass to another trying to get a bigger, better glimpse of the moving train/s. there were other little kids there too & it was just so nice to watch them interact with one another. julian even made choo choo sounds when the trains are passing right in front of him :) we had packed lunches of good ol' ham or roastbeef or turkey sandwiches, yummy yummy cookies, apples & chips... the kids had their own too... they had pb&j & apple slices & chips too. the kids had a blast too playing with their own little train town set up just for luke's little friends. they even had a bean toss in a little thomas the engine board. it was nice seeing our friends & seeing how their little ones has grown. julian just loves playing with them. julian's took two trolley rides... one with me & james & the second one was with his grandma... the second round-up of his second trolley ride was the last for our little one this time for he just finally couldn't keep his eyes open anymore... he was pooped. pooped from all the fun & excitement :) he was able to have the delicious cupcake train cake & got his own little goodybags & own thomas the engine toy train before he zonked out. he was so out of it that i was even able to put him down in the grassy area of the place without him waking up. before you know it, it was time for us to head on home. happy happy 3rd birthday again luke & to rob & mary, it was a great party. thanks so much for inviting us! i'm looking forward to taking another trip to traveltown with my babies soon... it was a blast!!!
