My Shoe Girl

Ava loves shoes! If yours are out she'll have them on her feet.
Last night I went in to check on her before I went to bed and this is what I found.

Who sleeps in shoes?
Ava does.
I left them on (don't wake a sleeping baby). When I went to get her this morning she still had them on. Funny girl.

***by the way when did my baby get so big?

Spring Break

We're going to the Zoo, Zoo, Zoo how about you, you, you...
If you live in this area there was a good chance you were there too too too.

We chose the day to go the the Fort Worth Zoo that everyone else in the DFW area did - why not the weather was perfect, it was spring break and it was half price. Any of those should have been clues that it might be REALLY busy. We paid no attention.
So we joined the crowd and had some fun.

Flamingos are always a favorite for Mai. Ava's told us her favorite was the monkeys.

Here is what most of our pictures look like.
The back side of our crew. Thanks Bradley's and Carr's for including us in the fun!

Surprisingly the animals were all pretty lazy. Must have been nap time. Mai tried as hard as she could to wake up the rhino's with no luck. The giraffes were out and fun to watch.

Ava and Kiersi talking about the fun they had.
Or Kiersi wishing that Ava would let go of her neck.
Either way they're cute.
For some reason we never found the lions. But have no fear we had Mai to play the part.
I'm sure it was just as impressive...

Super Hero Ava


That's what she calls herself these days.
We are working on potty training and I'm hoping that her super powers kick in fast!

Gma and Gpa Z

Came to visit us last week and we had a great time. The girls got to spend a lot of good time with them and loved every bit of it - I of course loved the company and all of their help!
We even played tourists for an afternoon and went downtown to see the Cattle Drive.

Mind if I catch a ride?

and a rest
Ava will feed you some rocks.
My girls. Mai really did have more fun then her face shows.
Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for coming to visit us! We can't wait to come to Illinois!
