After three days of being spoiled rotten by beautiful springtime weather and lots of happy walks outside, the rain clouds descended; humbling us and leaving mom scratching her head to find an activity. Lucky for us, my other half is a "doer"- the kind of guy that is chock full of ideas and always wants to be on the go. His suggestion? Take the babe to the aquarium!

I guess a part of me assumed those activities should come later in MM's life- for the days when she's a little more cognizant; running around and reaching for jellyfish. But my little 7.5 month old took to the fishes like a moth to a flame. She was mesmerized, mom got to walk, and after an hour or so she drifted off into a perfect little nap. All in all, it was a great rainy day morning- and definitely a better alternative to the usual mall-walking routine.

See you soon, ocean friends.
