NASA

When I told Brady that we were going to visit NASA, he immediately ran to put on his astronaut suit like there was no question that's what he was wearing. Everyone at the space center could not get over how cute that he looked!


My space lover Brady was so excited to be at NASA that he was literally flying around the exhibit hall.


Do not be surprised if one day you see Astronaut Brady being honored at NASA in his own exhibit. I know that he is going to reach the stars someday!


Cash loved playing in the tot zone. He has so much fun filling up an air tank with "asteroid" balls which were then lifted into "space" and eventually dropped to blast the kids. He completed this mission over and over again!



While at the Living in Space show, the presenter asked for a member of the audience to be a volunteer. Everyone pointed to Brady which made his day! I guess you get special treatment if you're in a space suit! Ha ha! As soon as he reached the stage, Brady jumped up and down as high as I have ever seen him jump before. His knees were almost touching his chin! He was just so darn happy! This prompted the presenter to ask how old he was because she thought he was too young to be a part of the show. I assured her that Brady was fine and that he was merely excited.

She went through the usual drill of asking him his name, his age, his school, and where he was from. Brady confidently answered everything but paused on the last question. I was getting nervous thinking, "Come on Brady, you know this. Say, Houston, Texas." She asked him three times and still nothing. Then, the last time she prompted him, Brady matter of factly said, "EARTH!!!" Everyone in the audience died laughing! It was hysterical and technically Brady is correct, he is from Earth! This will be a story that I will remember forever and will be telling the grandkids. It was priceless!

We had to go into the awesome ball pit one last time before we went left the space center. Watch out!
