Day at the zoo

Frank and I took the kids to the zoo today and met Kendall, Caleb and their mom Jyl there. Amelia and Kendall were in the same class this year and are great friends. Caleb and Elliott are only 6 weeks apart so it's a friendship in the making. This makes Frank very happy because he feels that Elliott hangs out with to many girls way to much.

The girls favorite part of the zoo was the butterfly house. We spent a lot of time in there waiting for the butterflies to land on us. I even got in on the fun but eventually had to drag them out of there, it was HOT!

The perfect ending to a perfect trip to the zoo is a train ride and a lollipop! We are thankful that we had such a nice day with family and friends.

2008 Memorial Day Weekend

We had a great Memorial Day Weekend. We spent the weekend swimming because our a/c went out. Elliott loved lounging in his diaper to keep cool and Amelia loved that we spent 3 days in the swimming pool. Amelia is a fish in the water. She knows enough to be very dangerous so we have to keep a close eye on her. She is very confident in the water and thinks she is an olympic swimmer (as you can see from her swim gear). Elliott is getting used to the water and I am sure he will come to love it in no time.

New Spurs Player!

GO SPURS GO! Even though Frank and I are not basketball fans, I had to get Elliott into the spirit of the playoffs so I bought him a Spurs outfit. He loves playing basketball and baseball and loves anything that involves a ball. I don't know where this interest in sports comes from because his Daddy is not into "traditional" sports. Since he has shown an interest on his own I feel like I have to encourage it.
