WaWa!!!

Okay, so WaWa is actually Aunt Laura but Leah can't seem to pronounce Laura so she says "WaWa". We were fortunate enough to have Aunt Laura come and stay with us for a few days after Thanksgiving. She was out in NJ/NY visiting her in-laws for the holiday and her work schedule permitted her to stay for a few extra days to catch up with her favorite little niece Leah. We only had 2 days but they were great. On Monday we took Leah to the asthma/allergy specialist (not so much fun) and then we went shopping at Quakerbridge Mall where Leah got to see Santa Claus. Last year she loved him but this year...not so much. She just kind of looked at him with this scowl on her face...it didn't last long. I had been trying to introduce the idea of Santa to her with books. Now, when ever she sees him on TV or in books she says "oh, oh oh" I guess that is her version of "Ho Ho Ho!" Maybe if I would have waited a bit longer she would have been a little less apprehensive, oh well maybe next year.

On Tuesday we went to Adventure Aquarium in Camden. It has slowly become one of our favorite spots. Leah does really well and loves to look at all the fish...plus on weekdays it gives her an opportunity to run around, even though we are stuck indoors. We spent the most time watching the hippos and the sharks. We are glad that Aunt Laura got to go with us, and I love the picture above of them posing in the shark's mouth.

Lucky for Mitch and I. My sister was here for our anniversary. We were able to go out to dinner and knew that Leah was in good hands with her Auntie! I think Leah had a great time, but Aunt Laura looked exhausted when we got home :) Thanks Aunt WaWa for coming to visit. We love getting to spend time with you and can't wait for Christmas!
