We took a trip to the Aquarium in the basement of the Mall of America. Alicia met up with her new "big sister" Katie and "big" brother Will. Katie is 4-5 and Will just turned 1. Katie was so excited to meet Alicia and the feeling was mutual. Alicia followed Katie everywhere. It was cute.

After seeing the turtles and the fish from Finding Nemo, we headed towards the lego area. They played legos for a bit, then Deb invited us over for pizza. We headed to the hotel picked up Ali's pjs, and headed over. Alicia met Katie and Will's Dad, ate some pizza, and played in the living room. It was pretty fun. The girls sure like to squeal. At the end of the nite, Katie gave Alicia a hug. (then another, and another and another). It was really cute. Lets hope these girls can see each other in a few more years. Until then, we'll have to keep them (and Will) in touch via our blogs.

After lego's we headed to the Build-A-Bear workshop. There Katie picked out a puppy (called "puppy") and Alicia picked out a black bear. The black bear she called "Otottols" which we spell O'toodles, (name comes from a saying on Mickey Mouse Clubhouse). We are hoping that everytime she says O'toodles, we can give her the bear now instead of putting on her show. So far its working.. she's quite attached when he's in her vision.
