Aquarium

What do you do with a 10 month old in the winter?  Luckily, our winter has been pretty mild this year but we have learned that there aren't too many activities/places to take your baby to fend off cabin fever.  Last weekend Eric and I started brainstorming and we have come up with some good ideas that I am excited to test out over the next several weeks.

Our first idea was to put our new zoo membership to use and head to the aquarium.  It was a windy, cold day so we bundled Nolan up to the max and beelined to the back of the zoo.  Once inside the aquarium it was awesome!!  There was no one there and Nolan was able to crawl along the glass and watch the colorful fish for a good 45 minutes.  It was relaxing for Eric and I too because there wasn't a crowd that we needed to worry about and we could sit back on the stairs behind Nolan and just watch him discover the different colors and movement.  He would have stayed longer but it was getting dangerously close to nap time :)  

We will definitely be heading back soon!
