Alex vs. T. Rex

Before this week I'd say he didn't have a chance. But, given his newly discovered mobility, perhaps he could get away from T. Rex (especially since T's not really mobile these days either). Alex can now "scoot" -- propel himself with his legs backward (while on his back).

This picture is from the Museum of Natural History. Probably a much better museum for when he's older. He just didn't appreciate the fossils. But, there was a wonderful exhibit with the national wildlife photography winners. It was much more crowded than the National Gallery (modern wing). Here's where my son has taste. As we wandered through the contemporary art (think Jasper Johns), he let loose a number of his high-pitched squeals of delight!
