Exploring with the Haleys

We went to the Dallas World Aquarium with my sister's family, the Haleys, while they came down for a visit. Here is Jack and Ali checking out some monkeys.

Here is one ornery little monkey that crawled out of the cage on this tree branch above us. Unfortunately he had a full bladder and good aim - poor Abi left with a souvenir of monkey pee in her hair.

Here is Abi not knowing what to think about the wet stuff in her hair.


Ali and Jack led the way to all the exciting displays.


We were all enthralled by the sea otters.


Here is Miss Averi Sue. This child is the most easygoing, happy baby I have ever met. I don't know how my sister ended up with this one, but she has it good with her. The child cried for a grand total of 30 seconds during the Haleys entire visit. She is a sweetie and is always ready with a smile for you.
Sometimes I think my family belongs in the jungle because we have two little monkeys, so this picture is quite appropriate for us.

Looking for manitees and getting sprayed by the waterfall. And getting verrrry sleeeeeeeepy.

Jack was quite enamored with the sharks, especially during feeding time.
Easton LOVED Averi. I don't know how he automatically knew to be sweet with her, since he is not around babies hardly ever. But every time he saw her, he would crawl straight toward her and give her kiss after kiss after kiss. We had to keep an eye on him though because the little brute doesn't know his own strength. He would plow over her and give her accidental headbutts occasionally. Maybe his sweetness with her is a good sign for his little brother that is on the way.

LOVE to see all the pictures. Looks like you guys have been busy little bees and having fun wherever you go. I'm happy to see Easton's round little head - what a blessing that it healed so quickly. Congrats on number 3; you ought to be a pro at boys by now.
