We Love the Zoo!

We spend a lot of time at the zoo. Our favorite animals and attractions change each time we visit. Here are some cute pics from our lastest visit.

Mckinley loved the day at the zoo. She was smiling as Drew played in the sand.

Drew telling Kinley all about the animals. He really took on the role of the expert.

Drew now asks me to take his picture. This was one of those momements. Drew said, "take my picture in the huge eagle's nest. "


Drew loves suckers and I bought him one because his is my little helper and a great big brother. He was so proud.

Sooo Behind!

Well where do I even start. With my going back to work I am so behind on my blogging. I am going to post some old stuff from the summer.

One bit of exciting news around here is Mckinley has started walking. She is one day shy of 9 months. She started taking steps a week ago. The most steps she has taken is 11 steps in a row. This is currently her full time job and she is determined to keep up with her big bro.


Drew update. Drew is rhyming words, swinging all by himself, and loving superheros. I think he currently talks about spiderman, batman, or his favorite Transformers all day long. I will be happy when this obsession "cools" a bit.

Please bear with me as I post some old events.

Splashin at the Splash Park!

A couple of weeks ago I took the kids to the splash park at Woods Pool. It is a little bit of a drive for us now that we are in Waverly, but it is the one pool area that I feel comfortable taking both kids by myself. Mckinley loved it because the water was warm enough and Drew went down the slide a million times. Drew was ready to go after a couple of hours. I do notice that he has reached that age that he would rather be in the big pool with a friend. Mom is just not as fun as she used to be and I always seem to be occupied with Kinley.
