The Zoo part 2

The animals were very cooperative with their photo ops.
Hello Mr. Meerkat

On the way to Africa, Audrey wanted to ride with Grandma.


And on the way back, with me.

Papa and Audrey checking out the cheetah.


Who's that cutie?


Love this pic!

This gorilla was taking a nap!


A very fun time at the zoo!

It's the Circus!

Audrey was excited to eat her popcorn at the circus. Her favorite part was definitely the elephants.
My favorite was the tigers and some really cool motorcycles in a cage that I couldn't even come close to taking a picture of!



Nice kitty.

Christopher did quite well. Even took a little nap.

He enjoyed the popcorn too.




The elephants were pretty cool.



This was one happy girl after the show was over!

Summer Randomness and Kiddo Update

At 3 1/2 Audrey can now rhyme. Some of her words are made up but she certainly has the concept down!
Christopher is more and more confident with walking. He started walking in shoes this week and took to it well. He is now a climber! Walking is not enough.

I love this goofy pic of us!



See? My little climber.

Unloading/loading the dishes is not easy with him around. :)



Caught you!

I'm very helpful.



Grandma gave Audrey this frog rain gauge. She instantly loved it and asked every day if we could check for rain. And then we had a drought.

Finally, we were able to use it. However, by the time we got out to read the gauge, it evaporated.

It's supposed to rain a lot this week so hopefully we can check it again!

Take Me Out to the Ballgame

We went to the Royals game this weekend.
We did not expect to see a praying mantis. Pretty cool.

We spent a lot of time in the kids area.



Even Christopher enjoyed it.

We did have a little sibling rivalry when it came to mini-golf.



Audrey eventually gave up and shared with her brother.








It was a lot of fun.

It was 95 degrees out so we cooled off in the gift shop. Audrey loved the Slugger "claws".



And we discovered that Christopher likes popcorn!

Even though the Royals lost it was a good time!

And We're Walking

Christopher is now a walker! He still wobbles and falls and crawls a lot but he is getting used to the new mode of getting around. Yay Christopher!

Christopher's 1st Birthday

We decided to go with a "car" theme for Christopher's birthday.
He was pretty mellow at first.

And then curiosity got the best of him.

All this for me?



Love this pic!


Peek-a-boo!

His new car and toothbrush.


Happy Birthday to You!

I've been eating cake all my life.
