Sea World, Take 2

The Babe's second trip to Sea World seemed to be even more fun for her than the first.
She can't wait to go back and see the whales, polar bears, otters, turtles, SHARKS, and to ride the Elmo ride (even though it's made her cry twice now).

The Babe's Early Bday Celebration (and the rest of her Saturday)

As an early birthday celebration for Izzy (and since we can get away with not having a real party for another year), we took the Babe to Sea World today.
