Lionel's First Trip to the Zoo!

We went to the zoo on this absolutely beautiful day.  It was one of the best zoo days I've ever had.  All of the animals were out and active.  Everett got soaked at the splash pad and then covered in dirt at the tree house, but had a great time.  Lionel loved watching the kids and animals and even snuck a catnap in in the shade.  It was such a lovely day with my family.

The boys all geared up and ready to see some animals!

Giraffes!  Lionel's first animal sighting!

Running around the splash pad and in the caves (his FAVORITE part!)

Red Rover, Red Rover....

....Let Lionel roll over!  Tonight, after dinner, Lionel rolled over for the first time!  He had been rolling onto his side for weeks and then falling back onto his back, but tonight he made it all the way over.  Once he got going, he couldn't stop!  It is so exciting to see him start his milestones.  He'll be crawling next, watch and see!

I did it!

Hmm, what's next for me?

My Little Artist

We had a play date at our house today and all the kids painted pots and then planted a flower in them.  Everett was way too excited to actually do it while all the kids were over our house, so we did his after his nap.  It was so much fun watching him do this.  

Pump It Up!

We discovered a great indoor play place with giant inflatables called Pump It Up last week. Ever since Everett learned to jump, he has loved these things.  We went with my moms' group and had so much fun.  So much, in fact, that we went back this week for more!  I counted and Everett went down that giant slide 30 times in a row!  Lionel had fun watching the kids play.
