First trip to the Aquarium

Brandon had the day off the other day so we decided to take a little road trip to the aquarium.

Brandon making wishes for Brayden and Bailey. 

Checking out the fish.

There were tiny snails. They were so cute.
Ducks!

A huge gator! I wasn't getting near that thing.
Me: "Oh look...there's 3 turtles....Daddy, Brayden and Bailey."
Brandon: "Look....there's Mommy!...." {It was a blow fish. lol} 
What a sweet husband I have. ;)
We both busted out laughing.
Stingrays.
Jellyfish. I've been stung by one of these jokers before. Didn't feel too good either.
Look how gi-nor-mous this shark's mouth is.

The divers swam up to the glass to wave to Brayden and Bailey.



Brayden didn't care too much for the fake snake. {That made this mama happy!}


All the cute turtles sun bathing.
Ribbit.
Ribbit.



After the aquarium, we took the ferry to Southport. 
We had to wait for about 15 minutes until we could get on. 
Brayden and Bailey took a little cat nap.

We were the first car on so we were right up front. The water splashed on the car a few times. Brayden and Bailey woke up when we got on and we let them sit in our laps up front so they could see. 
Of course they wouldn't sit still. They thought they were something getting out of their car seats.

As soon as we got off the ferry, we took a potty break....
and guess what we saw?!
Aunt Step'anie {my sister} on the front of the South Brunswick Magazine
I wasn't expecting to see it there.
Click on the link above and check it out. 
She's on pages 53, 68 and 69. She's the bomb{dot}com. :)'
We sent Stef' this same picture of the magazines and then surprised her at work. We visited and then went shopping to kill some time. After spending a couple hours in 1 store, we headed to Tripp's basketball game {our nephew}. I didn't manage to get any pictures other than the 2 below after the game was over. Brayden and Bailey enjoyed watching the boys run up and down the court but were little wiggle worms. It was loud in the gym and it was definitely Bailey's kind of environment. She loved that she could holler without us getting on to her. lol
 Tripp and Christian were happy to see their cousins. 
As you can tell, Brayden and Bailey were happy to see them too!!
It was a long, fun day and I have to say...
Brayden and Bailey did great considering they only had a little cat nap.

Looks like you guys had a blast! Not going to lie, this is VERY weird and random...but I read this post at about 4am while I was pumping last night. When I went back to bed, I had a dream my family came to visit you guys and meet your twins and your husband took us all to the aquarium! Ummm...? I think this mama needs more sleep! ;)
