Fun at the Aquarium

Ryan and I took Grace to the Aquarium in Baltimore today with Connie, Jelani and Aliana. I kind of expected Grace to generally be fine because she enjoys being out and about, but also expected her to be indifferent to the experience. Well I couldn't have been more wrong. I was shocked to find that Gracie was completely engaged and thoroughly enjoyed the aquarium.

The first thing we went to see was the live dolphin show. I didn't even think she could see that far. But she never took her eyes off the dolphins and actually reacted to them. She was mesmerized by them! We took her up to each of the fish tanks, and she just followed the fish around the tanks with her eyes. She was so quiet and just looked around each time we went to a new tank. It was awesome! Both of the girls had a great day, and were very sleepy by the end of it all.

I know Gracie won't remember the experience, but it was much more of an experience then I thought it would be for her at only three months. I can't wait to do more. We're already trying to think of all the places we can take her. Thanks Connie, for thinking of such a cool experience for us all to enjoy!

Here are a few pictures....
