It was so much fun looking at all the fish, sea creatures, otters, seals, etc and watching Hailey light up when she saw something new. She especially liked the otters, the starfish and listening to the sounds of the Orca Whales. We did have to leave with little something special and she picked out a stuffed sea otter holding a starfish sleeping in clam shell. It is pretty cute! I also got her an Ocean book for our up and coming cruise to Alaska. Here she is deciding where to go next.
After we left we had our packed lunch in front of the water feature outside of the Aquarium, Hailey really enjoys watching anything that involves moving water. We had a nice couple take our picture to commemorate our day.
We then walked by the Waterfront Arcade and decided to go check it out. This was where we found the carousel! Hailey picked out a very pretty horse and rode it very well, of course Mommy didn't let go while it was moving. (I can't believe that I didn't loose my lunch as I get nauseous watching things go around in a circle) We had another nice couple take this picture and it turned out great!
After our busy morning and her nap, we made some clay. She had a great time playing with it and this stuff makes mommy's hands nice and soft.
For anyone that is interested in some good clay, kinda like playdoh, but does not have that horrible smell, texture, and does not fall apart. The recipe is 6 cups flour, 1 cup vegetable oil, 1 cup water and food coloring to make different colors. You have to kneed it for quite awhile to get the food coloring to mix in though, ours is still a bit tye dyed at the moment.
The day would have been absolutely perfect if Daddy didn't have to work and could have spent it with us.
** UPDATE**
We then went and found mud puddles to jump in!
