Henry Day!

Henry will turn 3 next Saturday! Where has the time gone? Jeff will be gone next week so he took the day off Friday and we took just Henry (hence the Henry Day) to the aquarium in Charleston. Jeff and I both went to school there and haven't been in so long that it was fun for us too!

We ate lunch at Kicken Chicken one of our musts when we go to Charleston. Very yummy, but not the healthiest in the world. I won't tell you what we ate, just that I had to run extra hard this morning!

Henry loved the aquarium, especially the wooden boat the children could play on. Henry is not shy. He immediately put on a life jacket, took the wheel and said Arrr Matey. He informed us he was the captain and he was going to an island. When other children tried to get on the boat he thrust a life jacket at them and asked if they wanted to be his Matey. A little on the bossy side...

He loved the touch tank, snakes, sharks, and huge sea turtle. We got to see a diver clean the rocks in one tank, which was pretty neat. The children's play area had a huge tank with Dory's and Nemo's which was a hit too!

We ended the day at Ben and Jerry's where Henry left with a cookie's and cream ring around around his mouth and all was well! Happy Henry Day!

Next week week we have lots of fun activities planned along with Henry's fun snack for his birthday at school and his construction party on Sunday!
