Aquarium

My sister Steph invited Mattie and I to the Aquarium today. Mattie loved it, and spent nearly two hours running from tank to tank checking out all the cool things.

He would literally run from one thing to another excitedly pointing to what he saw
The aquarium isn't very big but there was plenty for him to enjoy

Stephanie touching the sting rays...... Mattie wouldn't do it.

he preferred looking... check out this giant lobster!

He loved the Octopus, and the spiders the best. I loved watching the Purana's and the electric eel.

We took a break to eat in the cafe. Mattie was done before us so I let him have a turn with my camera (he LOVES taking pictures). Here are a few of his masterpieces..
His own foot. LOVE it!

The cafe... aren't these cool?

After the Aquarium we stopped at the dollor theater for Monster's vs Aliens.

Mattie only lasted half way through the movie and considering he'd missed his nap that wasnt at all surprising.

We then took a little detour to a pet store that sells all breeds of puppies, and more.

We held and snuggled our share of puppies and watched and gigled as Steph played with the 900 dollar bird. (I don't know what kind it was) it was so funny and playful, taking off her glasses and playing with her curly hair.

As we left my mom called and asked if we wanted to BBQ.. Ofcourse we did!

We finally got home well after 8 oclock and Mattie happily went to bed shortly after.

It was such a fun and busy day, I am so glad to have such wonderful family to spend my time with.
