::Birthday Present Time::


So, for Brant's birthday we decided to go do something with him instead of getting him toys or clothes. So yesterday, we took a trip to the GA Aquarium. HE LOVED IT! He kept running around from exhibit to exhibit saying, "More Fish!" We were very glad that he had such a great time. He was very interested in everything, and we are glad that we went in the morning because as we left the crowds were enormous. It would have been a nightmare chasing him through all those people.

Here are some highlights:
He loved the Jellyfish..."Taking on the Jellies (from Nemo)"
This was his favorite spot because he saw the diver and this was the tank that had Dori and all the other fish you would see in Finding Nemo. Nemo was in his own seperate tank down the hall, but he was so fast I could never get a picture. Below is Brant waving at the diver cleaning the tank...the diver waved back at Brant and he got so excited!
Brant and Mommy in front of his favorite spot. We went back twice to this tank. He didn't really want to take the picture, but it didn't turn out that bad.
This was us inside the penguin exhibit. They had a tube you could crawl to and virtually be inside with the penguins. Brant was scared at first, but then he was fine. Pretty neat!
Brant in the tunnel with Daddy looking at the whale shark. Those things are huge!
Inside the gift shop, since we went to see the 4D movie we decided against buying him anything, but he was a good sport. There was so much in there he wanted everything. Maybe he is going to be a marine biologist and ride Shamu when he grows up.
This is me and Brant with Deepo, the Aquarium mascot. Brant was excited to take the picture, although you can't tell.
What's a trip downtown without getting a little heartburn at the Varsity. Brant's second trip and the hat isn't old yet! YES!
Here are two videos as well. At the end of each one you will see him run off and say "More Fish!" That is why I had to cut them off and chase him.
Enjoy!
