We celebrated Ellie's 4th birthday a few days early so that her Grandma Petersen could be here since she is visiting form Singapore. Ellie wanted a "fish theme" birthday so we went to the Seattle Aquarium to see all the fish.
Ellie had fun darting around to all the displays and she really enjoyed the touch pools. There is also a giant tank with fish from the Northwest coast and once a day there is a diver than goes in the tank and does a talk form inside under the water. Ellie seemed to enjoy watching this too.

We even had a fish leaping out of the water on the top.

Ellie really loves her new dishes and food set. Owen really likes playing with them too. His favorite ones are the eggs and the little salt and pepper shakers.
Owen has a pot too....
I might try and post more pictures form the Aquarium when we download Grandma's pictures. I didn't take many there as I was helping a little girl touch sea life in the touch pools.
