silas's choices for the mornings spent with his cousins were not surprisingly a visit to the aquarium one day followed by the beach the next. thankfully, sam's side of the family is full of good sports.

the last lizard of the day

pointing out the komodo king to owen.

hanging out in the oceanarium after watching the dolphin show downstairs. underwater viewing is highly recommended - when the dolphins jump the water/bubble ripple effects are crazy and fireworkesque.

early birthday celebration and fancy night out with my mom and godmother fran.

yesterday we hit the pool on the west side with olivia and friends. we planned on staying all afternoon but decided to take off after lunch when somebody took a poop in the water. there's nothing like hearing "fecal matter" announced over loudspeakers. sarah was trying to figure out which swimmer was the culprit by examining guilty faces in the toilet upon our exit.
site of their first solo encounter solicits a grip/hug a year later.

this smile totally justifies the five buck entrance fee.
