We've had a lot to blog about lately-because this baby keeps us on the move! Last weekend we went to Chattanooga, TN to watch daddy do an olympic distance triathlon. (1 mile swim, 26 mile bike and 6.2 mile run)
We put out a blanket on a hill by the river (where he did the swim) to cheer him on. Andre was super excited and proud of his dad!
After we saw him come in from the swim, Andre was ready to move on to the next transition.
"Put me in the stroller mom! Let's go!"
Here is Keenan starting the run portion of the race. He did an awesome job (29th out of 117) and even qualified for age group Nationals next month! Plus he won "best looking" (actually that was a personal award I gave him)
While he ran, Andre and I decided to check out downtown Chattanooga. It was really nice-lots to do while waiting for dad to cross the finish. But-by that time Andre had been up since 4:30am and it was time to nap.
And it was good thing since he had no idea what we were doing next!!!
The Aquarium!!
Andre was so impressed with the "tssshh" (fish) on the walls at the entrance we considered not paying the $45 to actually go inside. Just kidding!
And there we were. Inside the Aquarium. Immediately Andre wanted nothing to do with us. He wanted to stand right against the glass talking to the "tsshh". He was in heaven!
Apparently there was much better angle in the crouched position. This is how he spent most of the time watching the fish. He even got upset when we moved him to the next tank! Trust us Andre, there's alot more fish in the sea!
We just hoped that he ralized these were real and he wasn't just looking at the coolest TV on the planet.
I'm not sure who was more excited about seeing actual sharks-Andre or Keenan. They both look pretty mesmerized here...
Here is actual footage of Andre taunting the shark before the...well...attack. The following picture is not for the faint of heart.
SHARK ATTACK!!!!!
(he never saw it coming)
haha! no really the NEXT picture is of the shark attack. Go ahead and start singing the Jaws theme to yourself......
dunna...dunna....dunnadunna...
Scary isn't it?
But my boys are brave and Andre is once again wanting to be put down.
He did let me hold him once to see the jellytshhh.
"I'm not sure that IS a tsshhh mom!"
The Clarkheads had a great trip to Chattanooga! We'll definitely be back!
"bye, bye tshhh!"
