We woke up like we always do, and Collin, Mak and I had breakfast while the sweet baby slept upstairs.  Then Collin leaves to take Mak to school.  And about 10 minutes later I get a phone call from Collin.  &#8220;Um, Sweetie, I&#8217;m just guessing here, but I don&#8217;t think Makgill has school today.&#8221;  Evidently, there were about 5 cars in the parking lot and no cars in the carline&#8230;OOPS!  Mommy goofed!  It was parent-teacher conference day, and I had completely forgotten!<\/p>\n<p>But, wait&#8230;NO school???  And today is Monday, so no Studio work for Collin???  WOOOOHOOOOO, We&#8217;re going to the Beach!  I&#8217;ve been itching to take my boy back to the Aquarium, and today turned out to be the perfect day.  I LOVE waking up with plans for a nothing special kind of day and then doing something fun!<\/p>\n<p>We made a quick stop at the Disney Store, and then headed to Johnny Rocket&#8217;s for lunch.  Mak loved the music and the chili cheese fries.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cmsmithportraits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/11\/2007-11-05-12-59-56.JPG\" title=\"2007-11-05-12-59-56.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cmsmithportraits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/11\/2007-11-05-12-59-56.JPG\" alt=\"2007-11-05-12-59-56.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>So did Baby CB!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cmsmithportraits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/11\/2007-11-05-13-01-49.JPG\" title=\"2007-11-05-13-01-49.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cmsmithportraits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/11\/2007-11-05-13-01-49.JPG\" alt=\"2007-11-05-13-01-49.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cmsmithportraits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/11\/2007-11-05-13-05-57.JPG\" title=\"2007-11-05-13-05-57.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cmsmithportraits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/11\/2007-11-05-13-05-57.JPG\" alt=\"2007-11-05-13-05-57.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cmsmithportraits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/11\/2007-11-05-13-09-04.JPG\" title=\"2007-11-05-13-09-04.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cmsmithportraits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/11\/2007-11-05-13-09-04.JPG\" alt=\"2007-11-05-13-09-04.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>She was mesmerized&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cmsmithportraits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/11\/2007-11-05-13-16-47.JPG\" title=\"2007-11-05-13-16-47.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cmsmithportraits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/11\/2007-11-05-13-16-47.JPG\" alt=\"2007-11-05-13-16-47.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>By this!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cmsmithportraits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/11\/2007-11-05-13-15-59.JPG\" title=\"2007-11-05-13-15-59.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cmsmithportraits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/11\/2007-11-05-13-15-59.JPG\" alt=\"2007-11-05-13-15-59.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This is what happens when you take away Miss CB&#8217;s milkshake too soon!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cmsmithportraits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/11\/2007-11-05-13-20-09.JPG\" title=\"2007-11-05-13-20-09.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cmsmithportraits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/11\/2007-11-05-13-20-09.JPG\" alt=\"2007-11-05-13-20-09.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>On to the Aquarium!

Yeah- that&#8217;s NOT gonna happen).  So anyway, Carlisle had the cutest one on the other day, and I saw it last night at Toys R Us.  And they were only $9!  MUCH Better!
