Living Planet Aquarium

Wow, it is so hard to believe another month is gone. The rest of April went by pretty quick we had a trip to the doctor for everyone. Conner had is 5 year well check and 4 shots! Kyler picked up something at the doctor and we took a trip back there the next week for a nasty virus and double ear infections, he is better now. Brain has been having issues with numbness in his leg and went to get it checked. I had my 28 week visit and glucose test, yuck! But the baby is doing well her heart beat is strong, she is measuring well and is head down for now.
Today we took a little trip to the local aquarium, it is not very big but it has been almost years since we were there last and the boys did not remember it. The aquarium also has added a new area which had animals from the amazon. There were piranhas, an anaconda, spiders and frogs. Kyler loved the frogs, his favorite was the poisonous blue dart frog. Conner loved watch the fish and sting rays swim in the hands on tank but would not stick his hand in the water.

We also saw the jellyfish.


The reef fish, aka Nemo and friends.


And of course the sharks, three times I think. They are a favorite for both boys and are pretty fun to watch too! In all the trip to the aquarium was a lot of fun and a nice break from home and the doctors.

funny you should go to the aquarium this weekend. Kaelyn went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium on Friday with her Mom and Dad. They met uncle Donald, and had lunch with him. She had a great time and didn't want to leave. So it seems that all our grandchildren find nature pretty exciting! Glad you had so much fun. What is happening with Brian? You didn't say what happened to cause his pins and needles/numbness. Is everything ok? Is he getting tests?

Love you, keep us posted!

Love,

MOM M.

It looks like you had a lot of fun. I know that our girls also love to go to the aquarium and they are constantly asking to go...it is just a little expensive at ours s ince it is such a big one. They usually get bored halfway through. I hope that you are all feeling better soon! We are all excited to see everyone this summer!!
