Summer Learning

Here we are learning about monkeys. There was a cute baby monkey and mommy in front of us. Then we saw a hurt monkey, a monkey peeing and two monkeys participating in intercourse! It was very educational in the monkey area that day!














Here is Addie with Daddy learning about rhinos. The rhino made a big mess in the mud and was having a hard time standing up. It had stormed the night before and was cloudy this morning so all the animals felt great and were out and about.

Ready for the Zoo!

Here is Addie in her zebra print hat and her Wild Thing zebra onesie ready for the zoo!!!


















This is my new favorite picture of Addie. She was staring at flamingos!













This is the first animal Addie saw at the zoo. I swear the lady said it was called a "blue tailed skank" ????

Addie doing a little reading

Most of you are aware of Jeremy and his hobbies.
Well this is a picture, Miss Addie in the hotel reading the latest edition of the White Dwarf magazine.

My First Vacation!!

Since this year brought a baby, we knew that we would not be able to travel far. So we decided to take a few small trips. This last weekend we went to Kansas City. Neither of us had ever been there just traveled through. We spent the night in Overland Park, Kansas at the Marriott-Courtyard which was super nice and very affordable.

This was Addie's first night in the hotel on vacation. We went to the Cheesecake Factory for dinner. Addie found lots of small children there that she wanted to play with. We tried mashed potatoes for the third time and continued to gag
on them. I am not sure what is up with that.

So then since we let her stay up way past her bedtime, she wouldn't sleep in the pack 'n play. Jeremy and I fell asleep with this adorable little monster between us spinning in circles and singing herself to sleep.

My Papaw and Jeremy's Grandad would tell stories about how we were crazy sleeping buddies, well Addie must have inherited that from both of us!!!

Stay At Home Dad

I asked Jeremy to take some pictures of Addie during the day while I am gone! This is what I ended up with. The first week we were out of school was my birthday week and I stayed home with Addie but then I started to work part-time. I am working 9-2 at school, two days a week and then 9-6 two days a week for a friend in Fayetteville. Not really part-time. Anyways, Jeremy is a stay at home dad and is loving it. This makes me appreciate my school set up so much because the two days I am away from all day with no visits are very long!!!

June 26th- 7 months old

Today was Addie's 7-month birthday!! She broke the skin and has a tooth on the bottom. What a great birthday present. We are going to Kansas City this weekend for a mini vacation and for Addie's 7-month birthday. We are going to the zoo, her first visit to see the animals. We are super excited. We will take pictures and get them posted when we get back!

Dead Batteries! Bon Voyage Grammy!

We went to Mansfield this last weekend. We saw Grammy, Uncle Randy, Carla, David, Clayton, Logan, Jonah, Bev, Bill, Pa Cecil, Gran Norma, Granny, Tammy, Barry, Brittany, Linda, Sue, and Ronnie.

Our camera batteries were dead so we didn't get the pictures but Grammy did. The next time Grammy comes up to see us we will steal her pictures. So everyone will have to wait for those.

Also Grammy leaves for her cruise this Friday. Bring me back some baby margarita from Margaritaville, Grammy!! We love you be careful!
