Sunday Sketch: Twins in the Mirror

childrensmuseum

Last week I took M and E to the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh. Most of the museum is for kids a bit older, but we went to the nursery area, which was fabulous and more than enough. When I got them out of the stroller they screeched with delight, immediately pulling up on a wood barrier and smiling at all the babies toddling around, the colors, the toys.

Their favorite thing was a very low wooden platform with a bunch of blocks on it. Attached to the wall next to the platform were two metal bins. M spent about a half an hour carefully taking all of the blocks out of the bins. E enjoyed crawling around on the low platform, practicing going from level to level and scooting off onto the carpet while holding a block in each hand.

Since it is Sketch Sunday, I thought I’d commemorate the outing with a watercolor. This is them at the museum, checking out a mirror. This is also part of my new “Explore Pittsburgh with Twin Babies” initiative. Stay tuned for the next edition.

  1. The sketch is lovely. It really captures their joyful little mood.. I remember my guys at this age. They were always reaching upwards like baby orangutans! It sounds like they’re doing really well and enjoying socializing too! :o)

    • They’re shy at first, but once they warm up they really do seem to enjoy being around other people and babies. Today we went to a plant conservatory–it was pretty fun šŸ™‚
