Aquarium

Yesterday since the temperature dipped below my age ;) I took Belle to the Oklahoma Aquarium. I figured now that she is older, can walk, say fishy (sisshy), and generally interested in everything, that it would be a great idea to take her!

Turns out I was right. She was obsessed with the fish and running all around dragging me everywhere! We went at the perfect time since the stingray petting was going on and one of the underwater feedings. Belle practically swam with the rays and laughed, splashed and hung over the side rail with way too much excitement. The worker even asked to take her picture because she was having too much fun.

Every time she touched one of the rays she would tell, "oh soft!" Have I mentioned I loved this age?

Then after about an hour of running and playing we went to the gift shop to get a stuffed sisshy to take home. We ended up running into some kids speaking Portuguese and I debated on interrupting their convo to tell them Belle is Brazilian Then I just did it and we all spoke a little Portuguese. Good to know I can still bust it out when I need to! Although it felt weird speaking here in the US.

All in all it was a fun trip and I can't wait to take her to the zoo this spring!

Tchau,
