Fish and Tea

Hello all! We had a couple of very fun activities last week! We took one of Cline's off days and went to the Atlanta aquarium for the morning. I highly recommend this activity. Christa loved it!! She cried and kicked every time we left one exhibit, and we had to say "more fish" over and over again to get her to go to the next tank. It was very interesting and child friendly. Food and restrooms were easily accessible at all times; and the food was quite good!



Then on Saturday we went to a tea party for my friend, Kimberly's daughter, in Chattanooga. This tea party was a very sneaky and clever way to throw a shower for a mom who has just had her third child (and also an idea that I might have to steal sometime)! It was very fun, and we had a great time playing with our friends and giving baby Lydia (over at The Tinneys - link to the right) a warm welcome to the world!

This is baby Lydia's older sister, Catherine, who is about 4 months older than Christa. They are politely enjoying afternoon tea banging the delicate cups and throwing the plates on the floor. Note her dress - it's a pillowcase dress that Kimberly's sister-in-law (the creative giver of the shower) made. Baby Lydia also had a matching dress, and they looked adorable! I am going to have to find a way learn this skill for next summer (or see if I can pay off Kimberly's sister-in-law to make me one :).
