Aquarium (Take 2)

We went to the NC Aquarium here in OBX this morning because a huge cloud rolled in and we couldn't even see off of our deck. When I said that being here is as close as we get to heaven, I didn't mean we needed to live in the clouds. Anyway, the last time we visited this museum was August of 2009. We sat on a stone turtle and had a stranger take our picture and so we wanted to take the same picture today. My mom got so excited about taking our picture that she forgot to get the turtle in the picture - so it is the invisible turtle - but you get the point. Boy can things change in 2 years.

Little Man has also changed quite a bit since our last trip down here. I can't believe how big he is now. He is practically swimming on his own, playing in the ocean without holding our hands, taking care of his sister when asked and many other 4 year old things. He wasn't scared of the shark in the tank and I think was a bit disappointed that he couldn't actually touch the shark.

And the baby on this trip went from being Peanut in 2009 at the age of 5 months

to Sweet Pea in 2011 at the age of 7 months. Although Peanut will always be my baby boy, there is a new baby in town and she is taking over!
