Exploring Waco

Grandpa W is here visiting for a couple weeks so we are taking this opportunity to explore the area with him. Today we headed to Waco. The first stop was the Dr. Pepper museum:

Chase did a lot of "exploring" there (that's what I'm calling the insane chasing game we play every time we put him down these days) and afterwards we all sat down for Dr. Pepper floats and shakes. Yummmmm....

The next stop was supposed to be a park with fountains for Chase to actually play in, but when we got there it was dry. Bummer! So we moved on to stop #3.... Baylor University's bear habitat:

None of us could believe the amount of running Chase did there. It was HOT! We were all so miserable but he just kept going! We took turns chasing... I mean, exploring with him:

We also witnessed a bear who either got stuck trying to climb into a hideaway or just had a really nasty itch:

On the way home we had to stop at Walgreens and while we were there I tested out a pair of sunglasses on Chase (I can't find his old pair). He LOVED them and ran around the entire store clinging to his bath wash and wearing his sunglasses with the plastic packaging still attached! I have no idea how he could see but not only could he miraculously maneuver around the aisles with amazing speed, he stopped at one point to read a book!

MAN that boy can make me laugh!!
