Our Trip to Chattanooga

It was time to take a trip, so Mom and Dad loaded Baylor and I up and we drove through the night. Dad said it was a lot easier to load when it was just he and Moma.

I woke up the next morning in a great hotel in Chattanooga. What better way to start your morning then by drawing on your own face! Do you like it?

It was so good to get away and enjoy some family time.

It was good to have some sister time too.

Can we share the stroller?

Moma gives good kisses!

And good shoulder rides.

My next ride took me downtown to the aquarium.

First we went to a pool where we could pet the fish! They were really fast!

Here fishy fishy!

Come here, I want to hold you!

Next it was off to the butterfly garden. What a cool place!

Come here little fella!

Mom look, I can touch the blue one!

This is so cool! I want butterflies in my house!

Off to see more animals. First to the penguins. Baylor is very sleepy. She just could not take
all the excitement of the butterfly garden.

We saw penguins swimming and playing. They were so fast!

They had models of each type of penguin and they all looked like they needed hugs.

Hugs for you!

Awwww and you too little fella!

Now we get to look at the Ocean exhibit. This so cool! The first fish to swim over and see me was a big shark!

I'll just sit here in case my shark comes back.

Dad are we in the cage?

Grrrr, this is my shark face!

Here are the jellyfish! They are very cool.

Look at these huge crabs. Dad, can we eat this guy?

Look, I see Nemo!

My feet got tired so I got to ride with Dad some of the day.

Ummm Mom, my shark is back.

Where did he go?

More jellyfish. These are very little and hopped around like little bunnies, hop hop.

We will have to go in the cave to look for my shark. Come on Dad! Mom, don't forget sister!

Look Dad, I think I see Spongebob!

We took a break from the fish to play outside on this cool pond. Dad did a good job not dropping me in!

We played and went to eat before going back to see the second exhibit.

Mom we don't have to take a boat to get back to the aquarium. You are so funny!

The next exhibit was the Tennessee Rivers exhibit and we got to climb a mountain to see this one!

Mom is showing me the cute little turtles!

Mom what kind of fish is this? Look, he is a big one!

Have you had a good day? Where are you going? Have you seen my shark friend?

I like your fins.

Come here fishy! I want to hold you!

OK this is to many fish!

I even got to pet an opossum. He was very soft.

Mom can I take my shark home with me?

Mom and Dad took me to Mr T's to get pizza and ice cream. It is so good and I got a prize for being such a good girl.

Baylor was excited for her first trip to Mr. T's. She said she loved it even though she doesn't have teeth yet.

I had to write a quick thank you note to the cleaning lady's who were so nice to me.

Let's go Dad! Faster, Dad come on!

One full car and we are ready to go home.
