Aquarium

Hello people! Just thought on this cloudy afternoon I'd post a few pics from the aquaruim a few weeks ago. We bought an aquarium membership this year, and we have most definately gotten our money's worth. I think the weekend of Memorial Day we went 3 times. I am thinking these pictures are from that weekend.....the time that I took the 3 kids by myself.....and took pictures. But I'm not proud of myself or anything. :) Here Lily is trying to get a butterfly to land on her finger (in the Butterfly exhibit room). One of our trips she did get to hold one, and really liked it....however that same trip one landed on her shirt and she absolutely lost it. You would have thought someone had just cut her finger off or something. She's so funny.And of course baby Snow White had to join us.

Oh yeah, and I was carrying Austin at this point too because he had fallen asleep on the way down there.


The creepy spider crab tank has a little place where the kids can crawl under and stand up, so it looks like they're in the tank with them. The spider crabs really are pretty creepy too. They always look like they're trying to get you.

Taking a little nap...

They brought a few of the turtles out for the kids to get to touch their shells.

Taking the looonnnng escalator up to the top floor of the River Journey building.

There were some divers in the water, so the kids were waving at them.


This rattlesnake is quite mobile. Almost everytime we've been he's been moving around. The kids could sit here for hours and watch the snakes move......as long as they stay behind the glass.

This is some huge fish that the kids like looking at.

What better way to finish out the day than with some icecream!

We love the aquarium!!
