"Memo"


Just like most little boys his age Landry LOVES fish!! His new favorite is a little white and orange fish name "Memo" aka "Nemo!" My parents have bought him one these fake aquariums that scrolls round and round and that is what helped spark his love for fish.
Well a few weeks ago when we decided to go to Gatlinburg for a quick weekend trip we both just knew we had to take Landry to the Ripley's Believe it or Not Aquarium. It turned out to be a perfect day to go b/c it was drizzling rain but the bad thing was everyone else decided it was a good day to go as well so it was a little crowded. Landry didn't know the difference but a stressed Mommy and Daddy sure did b/c we were the ones trying to chase this little one around all those people. We actually took the stroller in thinking he would ride in it but boy were we wrong! He wanted to stand up with his nose to the glass! Austin and I had been to this aquarium about 6 months after we got married and were very impressed with how nice it was. So we were even more excited thank usual b/c we were looking forward to going back and experiencing it again through Landry's eyes! Let's just say it was a lot more fun this time around!! Wouldn't you know as soon as I try to take the first picture the battery went dead so I had to take pictures with my cell phone so please excuse the quality! Just as we thought he LOVED it. He had so much fun and he walked doing his little lip smacking noise he does for fish the whole time we were there. Although we bought him a stuff clown fish that looks like "Nemo" in the souvenir store I think his favorite of the day was the jelly fish.
They were by far my favorite pictures that turned out. Lucky for this little boy we are going back to Gatlinburg in a few months with Nana, Pops, and Grandma so he just might get to see all those fish one more time!
I will say as a side note that Landry has on his UT jersey that Austin bought for him b/c it was a game day. I don't normally let him wear that stuff out in town but I allowed an exception this day since we were 45 minutes from Neyland Stadium and his daddy was going to the Oregon game later that night. If you know me you know I am big on dressing Landry like baby as long as possible especially when we go out in public. I feel that he will have the rest of his life to wear team jersey's, bluejeans, and T-shirts(ect.) and I won't be able to get him in onesies and jumpers forever! I want to keep every part of him as babish as long as I possibly can! (That's just my opionion though!) :)
