LittleBear On the Town: Miami Edition

Thanks to frequent flier miles, we recently were able to visit my family in Miami. It had been a really long time since we'd been there last!! We had SO much fun while we were there, it really was a wonderful trip. I regret that we didn't get to see more of our friends from church, but we did have a wonderful time with my parents and my dearest friend Amy and her kids.

We went to the ZooMiami, the park, a playground or two, the Miami Seaquarium and had a wonderful time being out and about in the finest weather Miami has seen in a while. Such a refreshing change from the freezing temperatures we had been experiencing in Texas lately.

Anyway, the reason you are likely here is for pictures, so here goes...

This has become my favorite memory with LittleBear to date. ZooMiami has a pretty large splash pad outside the new Amazon exhibit and when we got to that portion of the zoo, he really wanted to dive in. I told him we'd come back to it on our way out and a few hours later, we did go back to it. Boy, did he love it. I wish you could hear the laughs and squeals of excitement that were coming out of our little man as he played in the water. It was awesome:




Here we are feeding the birds (ducks, seagulls, Ibises...Ibis'...Ibi? Who knows...) at the park near our house. I especially loved the duck family with 10 ducklings!!!




You've also likely seen this one already, but he loved the seal/sea lion that spit water at the Seaquarium:



Just in case you haven't had enough...here's a photo gallery of our trip :) Thanks Mom and Dad and Amy & kids for a fun week!!!
