The Dallas World Aquarium

On June 26th, after postponing this trip because Sadie got Strep, we went to the Dallas World Aquarium.  We have been before but we really like it and we knew that Sadie would love to go.  We got there when it opened so there was hardly anyone there.  It was really nice.  Of course the quiet didn't last long when a few summer campers showed up but we enjoyed it while it lasted.  Sadie loved looking at all the animals.  She was so busy looking she didn't want to take pictures at first but then later on she decided that taking pictures was fun and every 10 seconds she would tell me to take her picture in front of something.  She is so cute.  Ian seemed to like it too.  He is still too young to really care about it but someday he will.  After wandering around for a few hours we went and ate lunch at Potbelly.  I have never seen Sadie eat so much.  We must have really worn her out.  He even finished off my chips.  They both fell sound asleep in the car on the way home.  Here are a few pictures from the day.



Sadie is all ready to go!


Ian was probably wondering what we were looking at.


Looking at the sloth.


Sadie had to push the buttons on every screen to learn about the animals.  Crazy girl.


Watching the river otter.  Sadie and Ian just couldn't keep their eyes off of him.  He was just swimming back and forth in front of them.


More otter watching.


This little monkey was so cute!  It was hard to get a picture of him because he wouldn't hold still.



Group picture.


Looking at some sting rays.


In front of the big fish.  Sadie watched these for awhile.  She really liked the catfish and the manatees.


Can you find the sea horse?


This is when Sadie started to want her picture taken all the time.


"Mom, another picture!"


My two cuties!


"Another picture!"


The penguins were so cute.


And she wanted a picture by the penguins.


She loves those turtles.


The flamingos.


And of course on the way out, "Mom I need a picture."
