Aquarium

We took advantage of having the 1:1 ratio during the week and headed to the Seattle Aquarium.  It was such a wonderful trip I am really motivated now to take on more long day adventures.

We happened to go when there was toddler time.  Cooper enjoyed using ocean themed stamps and painting this rubber fish for an art project.

Who can resist the cutout poses?

This ring of jellyfish was really cool to watch

We stayed so long that we even caught the daily octopus feeding.  Cooper wasn’t a fan of touching the anemones and other sea critters in the touch tanks, but Nene and I enjoyed the experience.

Everyone was in such good spirits that we went out for lunch at Anthony’s.  It was energizing to get out and walk around Seattle in the beautiful sunshine.  It has built up my courage so hopefully I will be heading out for a solo Mama/boys long day adventure again soon.
