Ethan's Aquarium Fieldtrip

Today we took Ethan on a field trip to the aquarium.  We had a great time.  The kids loved to watch the archer fish, and Ethan got to feed them as they shot water up at the cricket he was holding.  They loved the sharks, and petting the rays.  We got our picture taken with the mermaids, and Jimmy Joe kept saying, "Momma, they're pretty" over and over again.  The kids found a turtle we had never seen before, and Ethan read up on the Wolf Eel, that's not a true eel, and mates for life.  I know that the face painting is one of the favorite activities, and the 4D theater is still a thrill.  We ate lunch, watched the tiger training/feeding, and got to pet the starfish.  All in all, it was a wonderful day.  It certainly is a full day for me trying to keep up with James, even when he's wearing the monkey leash.  Holy Moly, he's getting faster everyday.
