For Whit It's Worth: Aquarium

A few days after the 4th, I found out my mother-in-law was taking my nieces and nephew to the aquarium, so I decided to invite myself along. I had kind of high expectations- I thought Hannah was going to love it! Unfortunately, we made the mistake of waiting till after the aquarium to eat lunch. Yeah, it was a very bad idea. Hannah cried and whined and fussed the entire time. And because she loves water so much, it just made her MORE mad to be surrounded by water and not allowed to swim. She threw a couple of temper tantrums over that one. Sigh. Oh well, you live and learn. We went to the Rainforest Cafe afterwards, and she had a good time there, at least. Her Great Grandma had come with us, and Hannah talked her ear off while we waited for our food. The moving animals didn't bother her at all, but her poor cousin Brigham was so terrified, he had his head buried in his mom's chest most of the time we were there. It was pretty disappointing that she didn't enjoy the outing more, but maybe next time will be better. I've since taken her to the children's museum (and of course my camera was dead so I don't have any pictures, which I'm REALLY mad bout) and she did awesome and really had a lot of fun, so I have hope next time will be better.
