Fun at the Zoo

Fun with the cousins part 2 :) Sunday we spent all day at the zoo. Monkey enjoyed having his Daddy at the zoo with him looking at all the animals and reading him the facts about the animals. He also enjoyed having his cousins there to play with him. It was a great day with family!

 Notice the crane in flight to the right. He was flying over to visit all the cousins.
 Watching the baby leopard. This lasted almost 20 minutes just watching the baby and mom play together.
 Hanging out on the concrete waiting for everyone to come out of Tropical Discovery. This was the only way that he would stop crying and be happy.
 Taking a quick nap while all the kids are playing in the water.
 Racing wood chips down the river water in the zoo playground.
 Baby Peacoks
Visiting the new elephant exhibit. Loved having Daddy there to hold him up so he could see the animals easier.
 First pictures with the polar bear! We have one of Monkey when he was around this age too! So fun!
Overall it was a great family day. I'm so glad that we were able to all go and have a good time. One great thing too is that we all got in for free because of our zoo pass! Awesome!

      That would be fun! We plan on doing Boo at the Zoo again too. We had so much fun last year!

      Thanks! That was a lot of work to do to get it right and it still isn't perfect but good enough!

Happy Father's Day!

Today is father's day and most people are getting together and celebrating with family. Dads, grandpas and uncles all celebrating together the joys of being a father. Maybe getting a chance to relax and enjoy just sitting around watching the kids play and being surrounded with family. That's what father's day has always looked like for us. We would always gather at my parents house. First, with my grandparents when I was growing up for dinner and a day of enjoying being together. Then as I grew older my sister and I would make sure to spend the day with our dad. Then we got married and had kids of our own and the tradition continued. We would bring all the kids and enjoy BBQing at my parents house enjoying time together. This year things are different.We can't just jump in the car and head over for a BBQ. We can't sit around on the couch or on the patio talking and laughing together. This year we are 12 hours away from where I've always been for father...

The ABC's of Our Family

I got a great idea from this lovely  blog  about doing a ABC photo book through out the year. Each week taking one photo that goes along with a letter. I have seen lots of great ideas for different photo blog ideas but all seem like to much work and something that I know I wouldn't be able to do. This one seems reasonable for our crazy life.  So to start off I have chose a great picture that I took of Rex and M playing together one day when he got home from work. Rex is so ADORABLE in this picture I just knew this was what I had to use! Plus I already know what I'm using for next week even though the picture hasn't been taken yet.  So here it is.......ADORABLE Rex playing with his Daddy! Oh I just can't get enough of this guy. Also as a little side note to how adorable he is...he kept posing for the camera once I got. He didn't care that Mommy was watching him play and wouldn't even look at me but soon as the camera was out he had to keep turning and...

Bikini Body Mommy Challenge Update!

So we are starting week 8 (I think). It's been a few weeks since I have officially sat down and updated on how I have been doing. Week 6 I did pretty good. The 4 am workouts were starting to wear on me so I decided to try and get a workout in after my hubby left for work but before the kids got up. Some days that went OK and other days not so well. I did however get several workouts in with the boys awake and they went pretty well. Monkey tired to join in with me and it was quite fun to watch. Of course he couldn't keep up with the workouts and took many breaks but it was fun to have him involved. This week I plan to do cardio days at 4 am in the gym because they are easier than trying to complete in the house. But for the non-cardio days I will do them in the house in the morning. That way I'm not completely exhausted everyday. Now for week 7. I have no idea even what the workouts were for last week. I didn't even look once! I have good reason though. My hubby h...
