This past Thursday Baby Emily stayed home with her daddy so I took the opprotunity
to take Hailey, Trinity and Jordan to the Pine Knoll Shores Aquarium. We started the day with another Story Time at a different library where they did arts and crafts afterwards. Then we ran over to the grocery store to pick up some stuff for a picnic at the Aquarium and during the hecticness with 3 kids I lost my phone. After searching for a good hour..I had to give up so we could make it to the Aquarium and home in time. We set out on our one hour drive to the Aquarium..about 15 minutes into the drive they started the "Are we there yet" routine..for the rest of the 45
minutes. However when we got there they loved it! I've never seen them so excitied for something..and although I wanted to linger, read and learn about each fish they were going from one tank to the next. We finished the entire Aquarium in about 1 hour..spending most of our time in front of the giant shark tank. Hailey loved the seahorses, but I couldn't convince any of them to touch a crab or s
ting-ray (in a safety tank). After we had a picnic outside of the Aquarium and began the long drive home. All in all..a very fun day..but let's thank the lucky stars that I am not a mother of three!!

It sounds like you had a wonderful day! I love how creative you are getting at entertaining the kids. :) Hailey's haircut makes her look so much more grown up.... we knew it would come but I still hope she will cuddle in my lap for a few more years.
