Sea World didn't open until 10am so we walked around outside our hotel around the riverwalk for a little while. We had a yummy breakfast so we would have lots of energy to start our day off with. The first picture I posted is of Hudson pouting. He was having a great time until he saw a boat go down the river. Then all he could think about was going on a boat ride and he got really upset because he couldn't go so he sat on the wall next to our breakfast table and pouted (he gets that from me...I'm a big pouter! But after I've pouted a little while, I get over it and that's how he is too.) We promised him we would take him on a boat ride down the river when we got back from Sea World. Our first stop at Sea World was to rent this little jewel. We had to carry Hudson a lot at the water park b/c there were a bizillion stairs, it was really hot, and he was getting worn out. We were worn out carry him though so we decided this was a must!
The first exhibit we came across was the bird exhibit. Hudson got to see pelicans, flamingos, and a few others.
Here we are in the Shamu Arena waiting for Shamu to come out!! Hudson kept say, "I want Shamu...I want Shamu!!". He was sooooo excited!!! Shamu was definitely his favorite part of Sea World...well, that and the roller coaster! He always asks me if he can watch the videos of Shamu. The title of this show was Believe...which is one of my favorite words!
We also went to the dolphin show. It was an extrememly hot day at Sea World and we were all getting a little bit of heat exhaustion. Hudson was to excited to drink much water so he was starting to get tired by this time so we made this show our last stop at Sea World. This was a really neat show though because they made it kind of like Cirque de Soleil and there were acrobats, drums, and people flying through the air! It was a good way to end the day.

I should have put the dolphin show at the end but now that I realize that it's really to much work to move it. So the next couple pictures will be a little out of order! We went to the Shark exhibit which Hudson loved! He thinks sharks are super cool and couldn't wait to see them. I think they had just about every shark that exists in the huge tank. Here is a picture of the guys checking out the jelly fish.After the shark exhibit, we went to the dolphin tank to feed the dolphins!! This was my first time to feed a dolphin too! It was really fun! We got to pet them too!
And now the roller coaster!!! Hudson got to ride his very first roller coaster at Sea World!! He LOVED it...again, he's our little adrenalin junkie! Jason said if I hadn't spiked his hair up that day he probably wouldn't have passed the height requirement but it was his lucky day! He and Jason rode the roller coaster over and over and over again! They had such a great time!! While I was watching them on the ride, I heard a Dad call his daughter over to look at their pictures and her name was London!! Maybe this is a "sign" we should go with London for the baby's name!! It did sound really good when I heard him call it out. : )
So back to my story about Hudson pouting about the boat ride this morning. When we got back to our hotel, Hudson and Jason went for a swim in the pool and I took a much needed nap! Then we all got cleaned up and went for dinner at Budros on the riverwalk:
www.boudros.com/boudros YUMMY!!! I ate here a couple years ago (when I was pregnant with Hudson) for Terrie's Bachelorette party and have been craving it ever since. It was just as good as I remembered it! After dinner, we kept our promise to Hudson and took him on a boat ride down the river. We had to wait in a long line but he was so excited that he was willing to wait. Here is a picture of us starting out down the river...

And here we are about mid-way....
The people sitting across from us thought it was so funny that Hudson crashed (he was snoring away) that they had to take a picture on their own camera! Hopefully, he had good dreams about floating down the river in the boat he wanted to ride all day!
Here are some videos from Sea World:

That is too funny that he fell asleep on the boat. You have to be really tired to fall asleep sitting up and he probably tried so hard not to! So cute!
