The Aquarium

Yesterday we went to the aquarium. We took a boat ride from our house to there. All Emma could talk about all morning was the sharks she was going to see. As soon as she saw them, she was petrified and wouldn't go near the tank! Oh well, she loved everything else.

Out front were the Harbor seals. Sean didn't really understand right away and thought they could get him. He was very nervous and clingy, but he soon figured out they were in glass! Here is Emma trying to pet them

Daddy and the kids
We also got to see some penguins. It's dark in there so the pictures weren't great
Then we got to touch some of the sea life. Emma tried to be gentle, but she is like a bull in a china shop! We had a few starfish throwing instances. She also kept trying to open the clams.

The cool frogs we got
And a few of the sea life we saw~

Some kind of fish

And the sea turtle

You guys are doing so many fun things lately! I can't wait to be able to do that stuff with Evan and Rowan (though I don't want to wish this time away either.)

Ugh, I totally regret not going there when we were up there the last time. I agree with Tracy..I mean, we take them now but they'll have more fun when they're old enough to know what's going on:)
