Moody Gardens with Maddie



On Thursday, March 17th, we traveled with Maddie and Penny to the Aquarium. Aiden went to daycare so Eli and Mommy could enjoy the day together... and Aiden could enjoy his naps. Eli and Maddie were hilarious in the car on the way there. They were chatting and giggling the whole way... well, actually they fought a couple of times too. Well at one point, they were laughing so hard and Penny and I couldn't focus on our conversation. Penny turned back to them and told them to settle down. What we didn't realize is that they were laughing so hard due to the fact that they were squishing their juiceboxes so hard and making them erupt apple juice all over the car. We only noticed when "wetness" splashed up to the front seat. Yep... Momma's.... pay attention to the children! First on the agenda: Dora and Diego in 4D! It was the best 15 minute flick! We smelled bananas, wind blew through our hair, water splashed in our faces.... it was great!



Maddie and Penny.



After the show, Dora and Diego came out for a meet and greet. Maddie was all about it and Eli was scared to death! He stood FAR back and cried...


Several of my pictures came out dark or blurry. The lighting wasn't all that great. However, I captured a few moments where Eli and Maddie stamped their hands and arms as they reached different locations in the Aquarium. They were not impressed with the passports they had... body stamping was the best.



Penny tried to feed Maddie to the shark...

Eli liked watching the exhibits from afar. He was afraid of the big fish and sharks and stood back watching very closely.

He was as far back in the viewing room as possible. That shark was after him!
