Knock Knock. Who's There?

After I woke up this morning, I joined Tachi on his morning walk. It was really peaceful and I love hearing the birdies talking. After we got back, mommy fed me applesauce oatmeal for breakfast. I was absolutely starving! There were no leftovers!

After that, I raced around the house on my fire truck. Then, the doorbell rang. I ran over to see who it was and...surprise! It was Henry, Auntie Nancy, and Uncle Austin! I was very confused. The next thing I knew, we all piled into the swagger wagon and were off! Of course, I fell asleep. When I woke up, I had no idea where we were. Henry and I hopped into our strollers and off we rolled...to the Monterey Bay Aquarium!

We started off with checking out the otters. Those guys are really cute. I wonder if mommy would let me keep one in the bathtub. One of my favorite things was the touch pool. Starfish are pretty rough. I thought they'd be a lot squishier than the were. I tried to touch a bat ray, but the didn't want anything to do with me. It must be my imposing figure.

We had lunch and Henry shared his rice with me. I had to return the favor so I shared my grilled cheese with him. Then, he shared his cheerios with me. We're such trendsetters that Uncle Austin shared his fish tostada with mommy!

After lunch, we waddled over to the see the penguins. Those guys are pretty cool. There were three of them who kept trying to eat my fingers through the glass. I'm too short to reach above the water line, so the penguins were diving under water to get at my fingers! It was like they were flying under water! After I got bored with the penguins, Henry and I hatched out of a huge penguin egg. Daddy said we looked like Mork. No one knew who he was talking about.

We spent the rest of the day checking out cool stuff like jellyfish, sea horses, giant fish, tiny fish, and a play area! Daddy put me on this big water bed thingy. It wasn't bad enough that he put me on there, but he kept pushing on it so I'd go up and down with the waves. SEASICK! Stop it! We crawled around in these coral reef tunnels, touched more stuff in the touch pools, and ran around like crazy people. Uncle Austin even put fins on Henry! That wasn't the worst thing that we endured. Daddy tried to feed me to a giant clam!

It was an awesome way to end the weekend! Thanks for inviting me out Henry! We'll have to do it again!
