Aquarium Visit

Last Friday, Anna & I went to the aquarium along with her friend, Joseph, and his mom.  We'd been planning on doing this since last fall, but didn't get around to it until now.

We all drove together.  Anna really liked having another kid in the backseat to talk with.  At the aquarium, she headed straight for the 'fishies!'.  She looked at each exhibit a little, but didn't seem too interested in most of them.  She was most fascinated by the tropical fish tank, the sleeping otters, and the Goliath Bird-eating Spider!  She didn't like the penguins.  It's so interesting to see what she likes and doesn't like.  I'm learning so much about her personality.

Visitors

We had some visitors this past weekend.  Steve's sister, Emily, came along with her husband, Tony, and three kids: Lia, Micah, & Adam.  It was fun seeing them, especially since the last time we saw them was when Anna was a couple of weeks old.  Unfortunately, they were coming for Tony's grandmother's funeral.

In spite of that, we had a great time.  Anna loved playing with her cousins.  She and Lia definitely hit it off.  They goofed off, shared ice cream, and giggled like crazy!  Steve and I spent time talking and playing games with Emily and Tony.  On Monday, Ken & Kate and their kids came for dinner and an FHE on being a good family member- fun!

We're so glad the Bradshaw's were able to stay with us this weekend.
