AQUARIUM!

      Stacy and I took our girls to the aquarium and had quite the adventure! We will for sure be going back, but next time we will go on a school day (instead of the last day of summer, oops!) and I won't insist that we need the huge double stroller (that the girls were in for about a minute before they wanted to get out and be carried!)
     What an amazing experience watching Claire stare in awe at the tanks of sea creatures, wave to the penguins, and try to reach for the huge Cheetah behind plexi glass! Being a mom is incredible for so many reasons and seeing my daughter take in the world around her is definitely one of them!

I'm glad Stacy got a pic of this because it literally lasted a minute!

Claire was solo in the stroller for about 5 seconds before I got her out too!

A quick glimpse of the otters from the stroller before she was ready to get out!

Watching the otters...so cute!

Into the baby carrier! So much more fun!

Claire and Blake loved the Cheetah (or Leopard? Should have read the signs!) and Blake even yelled at her to "wake up!" so we could get a better look!

"WAKE UP!"

Love these sweet girls!

Flamingos directly next to the huge shark tank!
Claire is trying to turn back around so she can see the animals!
