"1+1=2. 2+2=4. 3+3=6. 4+4=8. 2, 4, 6, 8!" Aviella says.

"Avi, we understand that you are a genius at math. What are you trying to prove?" I say.

"Nothing. I'm just teaching Bella how to do it."

"I thought Bella was asleep."

"She is. But Tessa's big brother told her that babies learn more when they're sleeping."

"What kind of sense does that make?" Justin asks.

"I don't know. But Tessa's big brother is thirteen. He knows his stuff!"

"I'm sure he does. But, in more important news, we're here!" Justin says.

"Sharks!" Aviella yells.

"So much for Bella being asleep." I get out of the car and open the back door where Bella was now awake in her car seat.

I'm surprised she wasn't crying because Aviella scared her. Justin let's Aviella out before opening the trunk to get Bella's stroller out.

He takes her car seat out and puts it in the stroller, and now there shall be no baby carrying!

"I want to push her!" Aviella says.

She was barely taller than the stroller, so I'd like to see how this goes. I stand behind her, making sure she doesn't run into anything, or anyone, and we follow Justin into the aquarium.

He pays for us to get in and we let Aviella decide where we should go.

"I want to see the sharks!" She says.

She had now given up on pushing the stroller so now it was my job. Even though we were supposed to be seeing the sharks, Aviella was leading us and she had no idea where she was going so we ended up watching a bunch of colorful fish swim around for 5 minutes.

"Come on, Avi. Sharks are this way." Justin turns her around and guides her to the exhibit with sharks and the bigger fish.

I think it's one of the coolest things I've ever seen. You walk under them while they swim above you, and you can see everything.

I think Bella was a little confused as to why these things were moving and what they were

I think Bella was a little confused as to why these things were moving and what they were. She actually looked a little scared.

"What's wrong, lady bug? You don't like the animals?" Justin says.

She looks at him for a few seconds before smiling, then she starts doing her own thing. Otherwise known as sucking on her hands and being very entertained by her feet.

"Ariana, look." Justin points at the glass behind me and I turn around.

There's a giant shark literally right on the other side of the glass, and it looks like it's staring straight at me. I scream before covering my mouth with my hand.

Justin laughs at me and I roll my eyes.

"Shut up. That is not funny."

"Yes it is, mommy. It's hilarious." Aviella says.

Justin gives Aviella a high five. Even Bella was giggling in her stroller. I, on the other hand, was not entertained.

After they recover from their laughing fit, we continue walking through the aquarium. Aviella gets to touch the starfish and the smaller fish in a small pool with a bunch of other kids.

Of course, I have to take pictures, because I am Ariana Grande and I take pictures.

1:46 pm

"I'm hungry." Aviella says.

"We know you're hungry, babe. That's why we're going to get lunch." Justin says.

"Where are we going today?"

"To a restaurant." Justin parks the car and I'm the first one out.

I'm simple so I don't need Bella's car seat when we go inside places. My baby is only 12 pounds, I can carry her.

Justin takes Aviella out of her car seat and places her on the ground. She follows me into the restaurant and Justin walks behind all of us.

"Hi! Four?" The waitress says.

"Yeah." I nod.

"Alright. Follow me.

She leads us to a table near the center of the restaurant where we sit down. She places menus in front of us and gives us a second to look at the menu before taking our drink orders.

About ten minutes after she leaves, another girl comes over.

"My name is Kara and I'll be taking care of you and your food today."

"How do you take care of food?" Aviella asks.

"I'm gonna make sure your food is delicious and make sure you get the right food." Kara laughs.

"Okay. I trust you with my food."

"Well thanks. What's your name?"

"My name is Aviella. That's my little sister Bella."

"Well, it's nice to meet you Aviella and Bella." Kara smiles before taking our food orders.

"Justin, take your daughter." I say.

"Are you okay?" He asks, taking Bella out of my lap.

"Yeah, I'm just hot."

"You sure are." Justin smirks.

I roll my eyes and he laughs.

"After this, I'm gonna have to take a nap before we go to the pool." I say.

"Me too!" Aviella says.
