Maternal Grandparents come to visit

We had a busy weekend with the maternal grandparents all coming to visit. Nonnie and Boppa arrived in time to join all Wagners, minus dad, at the Pacific Science Center. This was Charlie's first introduction to the museum. It turned out to be a little frightening, but he rolled with it. There are some rather large pretend bugs and dinosaurs, which can be frightening if you don't know they are not real. Here are a few shots from the Science Center. 
Riding with Nonnie on the caterpillar. 
 In a space capsule, about to take off with Boppa. 
 We have been learning about bee keeping this past week. So, we were pretty excited, and needed to pose with the bee keeper here. They also have a living hive at the Science Center, which is awesome!
After the Science Museum, they took us to lunch at the Space Needle. Charlie had huge eyes the entire lunch. A pretty awesome place to eat for a fascinated boy. There was even a bunch of fire fighters dressed in gear eating as well. They showed Charlie their gear and talked with him for a while with Nonnie. Good times! If you ask, Charlie will gladly repeat the story of the Science Center and Space Needle for you. 
 Gabe didn't quite sleep through the entire outing. He woke up for a short while at lunch. Of course, it was just shortly before the food was set before us. But, he behaved well for a two month old and let mommy and Nonnie eat.

Not only did we get to enjoy Nonnie and Boppa this weekend, but we also had the pleasure of Grandpa Bud and Grandma Patsy stay with us at our home. Every time we see Grandpa Bud, Charlie asks him something about his tractors. This time Charlie wondered if Grandpa Bud brought his tractor with him. It was dang cute to watch him ask and see his interaction with Grandpa Bud. I wish I had my camera out for that conversation. I didn't. However, I did get my camera out for the conversation above. Gabriel and Grandpa Bud were chatting up a storm. Who knows what they were talking about, but Gabe was real chatty. 
We asked Charlie who he would like to have him read stories before bed. He voted for both grandfathers. I'm pretty sure he is in heaven in this picture.
