Mini-vacation to Corpus Christi!

At the Texas State Aquarium with dad!


Checkin' out the starfish!

Amazed by the big tank of fish!

"What's that?"

"Oh! A shark!"

River otters

Watching the sea turtle with mom!

"Ahgator"

Looking out at the ocean!

Breaking for a popsicle! 

At the stingray petting tank...



...and this little one here caused quite a commotion! Daddy wanted so badly for Cohen to touch one that he decided (for some unknown reason) to grab this one and try to *pull* it over toward him - and within Cohen's reach...

 ...and this is what happened - Cohen got splashed (well, drenched) by that stinkin' stingray! You would have thought the world was coming to an end by how hard that baby was crying! Poor kid!

"A dolpheen!"

He decided that since there were other kiddos on the ground, that was where he was supposed to sit, too!



But then the kids left, so Daddy joined him!


I love this one - it looks like Cohen's reaching out to pet him! :)

Interested in (but not willing to) pet a shark!

After the aquarium, we went out to walk on the beach!

Cohen was a little uneasy at first (hence the death grip on Daddy's shirt)...


...but it didn't take long for him to ease up and start walking in the water!


Little footprint!

Taking a stroll with Mommy, too!


Walking (well, actually running) out onto the pier!

He was doing his very best to convince his Daddy that he saw a shark in those waters!

Love, love, love this picture! Such a big boy!

Picking up sea shells!

He was listening to a big one he picked up!

Will had to make a couple of sales calls in Corpus Christi, and since my school year is going to start a lot sooner than we expected, Cohen and I decided to tag along - one last hurrah of the summer! We had  a lot of fun, and it was cool to watch Cohen for the first time in the ocean! :)
