Sleeping with the fishes
Marty wanted me to name this entry Got Crabs?, but I just couldn’t do it!
Well, if you have ever put my kids to bed at night, you know that they both sleep to a CD called, Sleeping with the Fishes. They were sleeping with the fishes on Saturday I’m sure. That is once there were finally asleep.
We were lucky enough to get to go to the Georgia Aquarium for a special Northside Hospital Party. My sister works for Northside and was gracious enough to include us and my dad. It was awesome!!
I think Andrew described it best “WOW” There is no better way to see the aquarium than through the eyes of kids. Abby and Andrew were in awe, all they could do was point and laugh and of course say “WOW” Because it was a special event, there wasn’t a full capacity, so we were able to get the kids right up to the glass. It was great that they were able to be right there and bang on the glass, I’m sure the fish didn’t think that was so great though. We stayed until it closed at 11:00, keep in mind that the kids go to bed at 8:00. Neither one of them even got fussy, how could they, there was way too much to look at and they were being carried by their adult of choice at any given moment. Andrew did fall asleep on the way home, Abby on the other hand was way to excited to go to sleep and when we got home at 11:45, she was still awake. It was way worth it though. Abby even said the next morning that she dreamed of the aquarium. If you ask her what her favorite part was, she will tell you the turtles. I didn’t see any turtles, so I have no idea what she’s talking about. Marty’s favorite picture is the one above; this crab can live to be 100 years old and grow to be the size of a car. Where’s the butter!!
My advice, go and if you get a chance, take kids with you. So worth it!!
Thanks Shelly!!
