Fun Family Day

We actually had plans to spend some time with friends today, but that had to be cancelled last minute. So Eric and I woke up this morning all bummed that we had nothing to do, and didn't really want to spend it around the house... but the weather was gross, so we couldn't spend it outside. We decided to go downtown. We had lunch at one of Eric's favorite places, Spaghetti Warehouse, and then went to the Dallas World Aquarium. Carter hasn't been to the zoo yet, so it was interesting to see him react to all the plants and animals. Here are some pictures from our fun day!

We sat in the train car at Spaghetti Warehouse. Carter loved sitting next to the window and laughing at his reflection the whole time!

He's really interested in forks now, and starting to get the hang of it!

Working hard on the fork thing

Holding on tight!

Waiting patiently in line outside the aquarium.

Now we're having fun!

Finally in and to the first exhibit

Seeing the sights from atop Daddy's shoulders.... just about the only way Carter could see above all the crowd!

Great pic of the two of them!

I love this little guy!

Carter loved the fish tanks the most of all.

Look... fish!

More fish gazing...

Ohh.... BIG turtle. This kind of scared him, along with all the other really big swimmers.

He got very nervous when all the big things would swim close to the glass.

The flamingos! Always been one of my favs

Last exhibit of the day.... and showing. Carter was a tired boy by now!

Have to have one last pic with Mommy.

Passed out in the car after a fun but tiring day downtown!!

PS: Notice Eric's new haircut? Courtesy of me... I shaved his head this morning! He said he was done fighting the hair loss... HAHA! I actually like it though.... it's definitely growing on me!
