D.C. Continued...

Our first night in D.C. we visited with Greg's brother and his family. 

 The only photos of the night were taken by Yoda :) 

 Baby H wasn't feeling well, poor girl! 

Our next day in D.C. was CRAZY HOT again, so we hit the monuments in the morning before the temperature hit 100 degrees. 

 Vietnam Memorial

 Mimi looking at the Lincoln Monument on the penny. 

 

 Just before this photo Yoda tried to go under the little rope and stand next to Lincoln.  This did not go over well with the volunteer who went white in the face trying to stop him. 

 There she is in the yellow hat.

Koren War Memorial 

 Every monument I got choked-up trying explain war to the kiddos, it wasn't easy. 

 Random loud helicopter

 Crazy hot 

 MLKjr. Memorial

 Finding the White house

Finally inside!  

We went to the Air and Space Museum.  I think it's the law that you have to go here while visiting D.C.  Because the place was wall-to-wall people. 

 A little Modern Art education--Henry Moore sculpture.

 Smithsonian--Natural History Museum

We lost Mimi for a few minutes because she couldn't stop herself from finding all the fossils.  The last we heard of her was her saying:"Let's find more fossils!"  and she was GONE!  The place was SUPER crowded and I was in a PANIC!  She finally realized she was by herself and came running--phew!

 Up and down stairs carrying the stroller was sometimes quicker then walking to find a ramp.  Again, it was CRAZY HOT! 

Another Smithsonian--This time American History. 

 Checking out the comics and making a surprised face. 

 Kermit! 

 Choo-Choo!

I put the camera on the stroller and set the auto-timer.  This was the result. 

 But for this shot, a man stopped us to take a picture.  His wife assured us he would take a better photo, yup, she was right. 

(Yoda occasionally likes to do this stance while I'm taking a picture, in this one he is admiring his shoes as well :)
