End of Summer Fun

We tried to do a few fun things the last week before school. Will and I took all 3 boys to the aquarium, which was a blast. Seth was really enthusiastic about everything. Joel wasn't as excited, but I think he was tired that day (and teething). Seth loved to watch the sea lions swim overhead. As soon as we got home, they started saying some new words - "turtle," "shark," and "whale." I feel like their vocabulary is really exploding. Seth will take my hand and lead me to the closet and ask for "toys." I will ask if he wants something, and he usually tells me no. Yesterday he told me he wanted "puzzles."

Nathaniel especially had a good time on our little outings. I'm glad we got to do some fun things together before school starts again!

Aquarium

On one of the Monday holidays we had recently, we took Nathaniel to the aquarium. We hadn't been in a while, so it was very enjoyable for everyone. He knows about most of the animals now. I took these with my new phone, and am just now working on uploading them, so bear with me.

I missed it, but Will said when they went to look at the sea lion tank, a big sea lion swam right up by the glass next to Nathaniel. It scared him a bit and he wasn't really wild on getting close to the sea lion window after that. It was a little funny, because not much scares this boy. :)
