One last birthday celebration for our new 4 year old!

Today we headed to Coralville's Children's Museum to have one last birthday celebration for Sophia. We picked up Abby and Johanna so they could enjoy the day with us as well.  The kids did great, but I am quite tired after having 5 energetic (but very well behaved) run me around for hours and hours!
 Sophia was writing a check.
 Elijah loved the planes.
 Sophia loved the planes, too!
 Johanna, the bank lady in the drive up window; Elijah in the car that was driving up; Sophia playing with an abacus   Made my math heart happy :).
 Come to think of it, they all really loved the planes!  Here is Johanna and Elijah flying away.
 And Grace, too, in her bomber jacket.
 They all liked to watch as the train came around.  Elijah really got excited about the train.  Maybe good idea for a Christmas present for next year would be a train set.
 And then we got to go get Sophia's birthday present from Alicia, Brett, and family.  A fish!  I've never had a fish, so am not confident in keeping it alive.  Hopefully my compassionate kids will handle the death of a fish okay, or maybe it will live?!?  They are quite proud.  It's pretty big, and they named her (?) Goldilocks.  They are both very happy about it!
