Sunday with Brady

Sunday morning we went to Texas Children's to check in on the babies and to pick up Brady for a day of fun at the Aquarium. Since he was going into the NICU, they had to confirm that Brady didn't have fever. When you pass inspection, they give you a sticker!



Brady and Jerry looking in on Kaden. It looks like he's waving at them.



We left the hospital and came to the house to "see Grandpa's cats" and to watch a movie. That movie part didn't hold much weight, but Brady thought Sully and Mike were funny in Monsters, Inc. By the time we arrived at the Aquarium for lunch, the weather was threatening.

Here are Jerry, Brady & Sharkey ...



If you've never been there, the restaurant wraps around a GIANT aquarium with huge sting rays, parrot fish and a bunch of other stuff. Jerry is studying the menu and wishing he had brought his reading glasses and Brady is watching the aquarium.



We had BIG PLANS for the afternoon, but when we finished our meal and arrived back at the door it was raining. Pouring, actually. Jerry's first response when he saw the sheets of rain coming down was "Oh, Lord!", to which Brady replied "Oh, Lord!". We have definitely reached the point with Brady where anything you say is being recorded and played back - possibly at an inopportune moment!

The other funny thing is that Brady now notices every noise and often asks about it. The bell on the elevator ... "what was that noise? is it a train?" So we're driving around with the radio on and I'm singing along and Jerry is humming along, next thing we hear is Brady humming - loudly and somewhat off key - from the back seat. Too funny!

Since we couldn't ride the train through the shark tunnel or do any of the other outdoor activities at the Aquarium, we headed to Swirl for frozen yogurt (aka, ice cream). After the ice cream, we hit the road to Pearland and Brady lasted about 2 minutes before falling asleep.



He got in a great nap and woke up just as we were pulling into the driveway.
