Put Me in the Zoo

We went to the zoo a couple of weeks ago with my friend Hillary and her girls. It was such nice weather and we had a blast. Wyatt went crazy over this fox ( I think he thought it was a dog) and he loved all the monkeys, too.

Jaxson and Addy looking at the penguins. They don't see eachother very often, but when they do they are such good buddies! They were running around the zoo holding hands.

Riding the train...

Nice underwear dude.

Brothers...

And last, but not least, cute little Elsie. She sat there for this picture, then as soon as I was done, she turned around and pinched both of the gorilla's golden nipples! It was awesome. I was so sad I didn't still have my camera on. Thanks for the fun day, Hill!

The big 2-7

My birthday was earlier this month, and it was fabulous! Thanks to everyone who made it a great day.

The week before, I went to the glamorous city of Wendover for the Boyz II Men concert with one of my best friends, Jessie. Now, before you think we are crazy, I have to tell you why this was so awesome. Two weeks before my 13th birthday, all I wanted was tickets to Boyz II Men. Two of my friends and I (you know who you are) had our parents all talked into it, and someone's older sister or aunt or something was going to take us. Then at the last second our parents decided we just weren't ready for a concert like that. I WAS DEVASTATED! Flash forward 14 years, and a couple of months before my birthday, what do I hear on the radio? An advertisement for Boys II Men performing one week before my birthday in Wendover! So don't make fun of me, I waited a loooong time for that concert, and it was awesome.

On my birthday, Mark took me shopping (willingly!) and to lunch and the cheesecake factory, and even to get a pedicure. So fun, and so relaxing without kids. I felt spoiled. Then we took the boys to the park to feed the ducks and fly a kite, and we ended the night watching a movie with Jaxson in our PJ's. I love birthdays!!!

CATCHING UP

We haven't been that busy the last couple of weeks, just lazy I think. Too lazy to blog anyway. I thought I didn't have anything to post, but it turned into a marathon long one. If you don't have time to look at it all, I would recommend skipping straight to the video of Jaxson vacuuming his face. Here is what we have been up to...

Wyatt has FINALLY been eating better.

We are giving him anything we can to fatten him up....

Jaxson told us last week that his piggy bank was "All fulled up", so he got to cash it in and buy a toy he has coveted for the last few weeks everytime we go to Walmart.

20 bucks for a Transformer that doesn't even transform into anything - crappy! But he loves it.

For fun, we have been amusing ourselves at home by riding around in laundry baskets, jumping on the bed with cousins (you know, the usual stuff)

Not to mention doing this...

And that...

I have also been busy working out in the garage turning this

into that...

The end!
