A Rainy Day for a Birthday

Momma took half a day off, like she did last year, to take the Big One out for birthday fun. We decided to go to the aquarium, and were a few minutes early. We stopped at an area look out to take pictures in the rain.

 

"Singing in the Rain!"

 

At the aquarium, Momma did her best to allow the Big One to explore and play. Some guidance was needed, but Momma got quite the workout going back and forth, upstairs and downstairs. We explored the open air exhibit, with turtles and alligators and little birds to chase. He examined the sea turtle collected from a sea turtle nest nearby, touched the horseshoe crabs, watched the rays, and ran and ran and ran.

 

Hello Turtle!

 

Momma and the Big One tried to go on a boat ride but the ferry was having mechanical issues. So instead we came home and had a tasty lunch of cheese(turkey)burgers and macaroni cheese. Later that night we celebrated officially with a Jell O cake with a candle that the Big One blew out all by himself after NOT crying during the Happy Birthday song for the first time ever!

 

The first year he didn't cry while we sang Happy Birthday!
