Monday Moments

March 31, 2014 by Anna 7 Comments

Where did last Monday go?  Just goes to show that when you’re on semi-permanent “holiday” you really have no idea what day it is, ever.  But we’re back!  Between Theo’s sick days we managed to enjoy some of the sights in Ottawa and Toronto, not realizing he was kinda faking it and was only actually healthy enough to spread his germs around various well-trafficked tourist sites.  My apologies to anyone who picked up unexpected illness on their days out.

Warning: picture overload with poor cell phone picture quality ahead :)

At the Canadian Museum of History, in the amazing Children’s Museum:

Swabbing the poop deck – as he should.

Selfies make us realize how ridiculous we always look together and why my sister hates photographing us (I am on my tippy toes to be in the shot).

And at Ripley’s Aquarium in Toronto:

There were a LOT of these faces.

This week: back to real life and real schedules. I hope we can adjust :)

    Oh, how fun! We’re taking our little lady (who’s now almost 10 months old!) to her first aquarium trip in a few weeks. I love the aquarium and I’m hoping she does, too. =) We actually took our first trip to the Zoo over the weekend, too and she loved it! Hopefully she loves the fishies, too. =)

    Love that selfie! Hard to believe there could be that much height difference between two adults. The jellyfish picture is gorgeous too. Looks like you had a lot of fun.

      Yes, there is a full foot of difference in our heights – at least I get to wear high heels :)

    The aquarium was one of my favorite places when I was younger. How fun!
