Penguins at the Aquarium



Today we finally decided to check out the penguins at the aquarium. They arrived in March, but we wanted to wait for the crowds to die down a bit...it was still a bit busy for a Sunday, but not too bad. When we got there we went straight back to the exhibit. Liam really loved watching them! For the first 20-30 minutes he really enjoyed looking at all the different animals. We were so excited that he actually wanted to see them, rather than run wild like he usually does. Then we went to the stingray tank, and he put his hands in to feel them...he did that for a while, then one of them spooked him a bit when he touched it. He jumped and screamed a bit, then he would not put his hands in anymore. After that, he kinda had a melt down, and was sitting on the floor and pouting. When we started to walk away, his feet magically started to work again! He started to run around like a mad person again, and shortly after that we decided it was time to go...Rowan on the other hand was a perfect angel :) Even after being woke from her nap from the car ride up, she just was content to hang out in her stroller and smile...we are so lucky that she is so easy going! All in all it was a fun trip, and I can't wait to go back to see them again. (By the way, in the video you will see Liam and a little girl (to the left of him), she is in Liam's gym class, as well as her twin brother...kinda funny running into them today.)

Liam Goes to the Aquarium

We have a membership to the aquarium too, but we haven't been back there since our first visit last November. We tried going a few weeks ago, but it was really busy because it was a holiday, so we decided to go another time. We FINALLY went this morning, although we went before Liam's morning nap, so he was a bit tired, and not really interested, but we had a great time anyway. They also have added a new exhibit from South America, they had an Anaconda snake, piranhas, frogs, turtles, an electric eel, alligators, spiders and other fish from the Amazon...it was really COOL!

Liam visits the Aquarium


We met my friend Julie and her boyfriend Justin and their baby Landon at the Aquarium today. We had a great time!! Liam loved watching the fish, and splashing in the water in the stingray tank. He got to see a shark swim right above his head too! We ended up buying a season pass too, so we look forward to going again soon.
