So apparently it was Monkey's birthday in Missouri! Which was quite a surprise, since we are still one week out from that exciting day. But Missouri is a strange land, and we headed out to the T-Rex Cafe to celebrate dino-style. Monkey loved it, although the sheer size of the dinosaurs was a little intimidating. He was very concerned about the Apatosaurus pair next to our table, and roundly rejected my explanation that there were robots inside of them. We did talk about herbivores and eating plants a great deal, though.After dinner, we headed downstairs to the obligatory retail space to Build-A-Dino, which apparently is a very rare breed of the popular Build-A-Bear stores. A Triceratops was selected, and Monkey really loved putting the heart inside, filling him with 'snow', giving him a kiss before his 'operation', and most especially, washing him. He was named Tank, after one of our favorite dinos. A good time was had by all, and Monkey had a really excellent Missouri birthday. He especially loved the clapping! So much love for the clapping, really. And the 'Rawr'ing.
