Aquarium

First off I need to post this picture. It just melts my heart. My little boy is getting cuter every day. He is so social and friendly with strangers. People everywhere just love him. He already has like 10 girl friends at church that adore him. Right now he is at such a fun stage because he is exploring every little thing and it makes him so excited to discover new things. I swear I kiss his little cheeks like 100x a day.

So today we decided to go to the Aquarium at Darling Harbour and it was loads of fun. Jett was amazing the whole day. We made sure we brought a little lemon for him to suck on which kept him occupied for awhile.

If you've been watching Amazing Race lately you will recognize this Anchor at Town Hall in Sydney!
I can't wait to go back to Darling Harbour. There are a lot of fun things to do and cool places to eat there. Plus it is beautiful! We only had time to go to the Aquarium today though. It was a little crazy at times because there was a huge tourist group of Asians that were totally into all the animals and taking pictures/videos of every single little fish and they weren't too courteous when we would try to get by with the stroller. We tried to avoid them as much as we could.

Shark attack!


This is definitely my favorite picture of the day. I love how he is so excited about the fish and pointing to them.
Yes that is a shark!
My favorite animal there was the Dugongs. They are also known as "sea cows" because they graze on plants all day long. The aquarium has two of them and there are only 5 that are captive in the whole world. We got Jett his own little stuffed dugong and he loves it!




To top it off, Jett fell asleep on the train! That was a first for him. His nap only lasted like 15 minutes but STILL it was awesome.
