Claires first mardi gras mask! Great day with Aunt Renee, mom and dad while Damian hung with his grandparents. Claire went along the mississippi river and got a small taste of the Quarter.
Beignets! That was Claires only bite..."too messy!" it was after an unfortunate visit to the bathroom there, she was a little grossed out...if you've been to NO you are familiar with the public restrooms in the quarter...ugh.
We went to the Aquarium of the Americas-mom was especially excited to see how its recovered, it was pretty devasted after the hurricane. Claire loved it! "lets go to the show!" was her mantra...
Claire and daddy pretending to be fishes
Darren and Aunt Renee goofing off...
the white alligator!
And Aunt Renee wore her christmas hat the entire trip I think! ;o) in the tube with manta rays swimming overhead Meeting their big cousin Brent! He did a great job entertaining them when we couldn't get into the christmas celebration in the oaks and had to drive all the way home...thanks Brent!
Daddy and Damian ringing up Claires purchases at the kids grocery store in the Childrens Museum-such a great place for the kids!
Claire went to town on her purchases!
of course our little lady couldn't go THROUGH the maze, she had to climb right over! I don't think she went through one of the designed holes...;o)
Damian loved exploring too! No walking though yet! But climbing is high on his list..
ridiculously too many adorable moments for one post, figure I'll spread it out a bit (250+ pictuyres to decide between!)! Great trip, it was so much fun seeing all the DeLaups and related surnames! Claire and Damian did amazingly well meeting many relatives, and being showered with attention ( tough lives poor kids!) ;o)
