Park Days

While it is warm, we will take advantage.

Sunday, the three of us went to our favorite park in town. Ethan and Robert had a great time playing basketball. After a little b-ball we went to the playground and then for a walk to find some sticks.
Let's dunk Daddy








Hey, look, there's Mommy!




He was pretty tired after almost two hours of play
Today, Ethan and I met Aunt Carissa and Macy in Dallas at the park. Ethan ran, played with his cars, and played on the slide. Macy got to go on the swing for the first time. 






I think she likes it

Happy Valentine's Day

We had a fantastic Valentine's Day today. We started the day having a little Valentine's party with our playgroup. The kids did a lot of crafts and had a ton of play time. We then came home to find Dad took off early since it was such a nice day. So we decided to go to Top Golf to enjoy the weather.

I love this face


  
  

And somebody in town is loved, even though Robert tried to take the credit.


Of course, we couldn't go to bed without a dance party in our mustache Valentine pjs.




And here are some cute little Valentines from a week or so ago.







Happy Valentine's Day!

January Zoo Day

Yesterday, we ended January with 77 degree weather. Of course, today it is about 55 or so. We took advantage yesterday and went to the Dallas zoo with Gaga, Aunt Carissa, and Macy. It was a beautiful day, a light crowd, and a very good mood toddler and 6 month old. It couldn't have been better. 

                                       

Ethan was more than excited about going. The first words out of his mouth when he woke up were "We go zoo, see giraffe today?" We even left for breakfast so he would stop asking when we were going to leave. We started our day with the flamingos and a little play time near the fish and goats. He loved playing with this particular goat. He would have really enjoyed my house when we were younger. We had a goat and rabbits at one point or another.


We asked for his fish face



As requested, we made our way to see the tiger next. It was a bit of a disappointment. There was only one and he was a hungry tiger pacing in front of the side door. So we decided to hunt down the kangaroos and emus. 



After the kangaroos we walked over the Savanna where we found the elephants, giraffes, lions, and cheetahs.

Later, we went to see some monkeys and gorillas. And we took a little break to rest our feet.




Every statue needs a hug

I love hugs from my boy!

It was a long day, complete with sprinting to the restroom for those last minute "I need to potty" (the joys of potty training). We had a great time and hope to do it again soon.
