Shopping and a hike

This afternoon, while Tatus, Grampa and Uncle Derek went for a big hike over the hills behind Gran & Grampa's house, you, me and Gran went SHOPPING!

Gran bought you this very cool shopping cart (which you LOVE to push around). We actually had trouble getting you out of the store and back to the house because you didn't want to be parted from it for even a second.

Meanwhile, Tatus had my camera and he and Uncle Derek took some great photos while they were on their hike:

The reservoir they hiked to and around. What a mirror image!

Your handsome Tatus:

This weekend you also found a favourite spot to view the world from--on Uncle Derek's shoulders. You spent a LOT of time on his shoulders this weekend, at the video store, and just walking around the house, seeing things from 6 feet higher than usual.

First visit to the Aquarium: part 1

For your birthday outing, we took you to the Vancouver Aquarium. Here we are taking the token photos in front of the orca carving. In both, you are waving excitedly with both hands at the camera holder:

We saw jellyfish:

You wanted to help this boy play hospital to the stuffed sea lions, but he grabbed them all and ran off. Sigh.

In a bubble, and not sure you like it:

Buttons! Your favourite. Anything that vaguely resembles a button must be pushed. These ones yielded frog sounds:

Starfish:

More jellies:

Sea otter. It was a beautiful day outside, but so crowded with people (and totally not built for people with strollers) that we spent most of our time inside and at the lower levels, which were much less crowded.
