Addi woke up at 6:00 am this morning to announce that she was "ready to go to Tainty's." You can fill in the blanks of what you think transpired afterwards... The actual pick-up time was set for 10:00; I arrived a little after that. Ash was still packing, and someone else was still sleeping after her pre-dawn awakening. We managed to get to Sea Life Aquarium about 12:30 - much later than I had anticipated. I'm so glad I purchased tickets in advance. Though we had about a 15 minute wait to enter the aquarium, it did sell out. It was the perfect day to discover underwater adventures. All iPhone pics this time. Figured I'd be worn out keeping up with the crew- no need to add a SLR to the mix.

Checking out some stingrays. Not sure why Addi has this coat hanger smile all of a sudden...
Addi checks out a stingray's barb. Pretty cool!
An unintentional silhouette, but I love this!
Look at those cuties.
Another poor selfie attempt

It was a fun outing. McDonald's for a late lunch afterwards, of course, and then a super late nap for Bug. Addisyn was not interested.
We ended our first night together with Bug spending much of his time talking to Otis and trying to convince him to watch Dora the Explorer. Addi was the ultimate waitress taking order after order of all of my favorite foods that her restaurant served. In addition, a quick trip to the store was in order (out of milk and a few other items), so needless to say it was a long day. The slumber party continued with "extended" hours, but eventually everyone settled down for a long night's sleep!
