trip to the petting zoo



Aiden and I have this tradition...if he has a doctor or dentist appointment on a work/school day, we take a couple of extra hours and we do something fun after the appointment. This time went went to the petting zoo...just me and him...and we had a blast!


Aiden feeding the sheep.


Aiden checking out the spider monkey.


"Check out that GATOR, Mommy!"

"Let's get out of here before he tries to get out."


Lots of people can say they're bull riders but how many people can say they're rhino riders?


Monkey mania at the petting zoo.



Aiden was taken back by the size of this yellow anaconda snake.

hanging out in annandale

Hanging out in Annandale on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Okay, maybe not lazy. I can't remember the last time we were actually lazy on a weekday or a weekend. It's always go go go for us.


Aiden and Sky hamming it up for Tim to take this picture. They know what to do....

Aiden getting to be a little iPhone whiz. I know it's not a good thing but I am impressed.

my punkin


This is actually Aiden's shirt but he doesn't care for it very much. Sky on the other hand loves this shirt and has been getting a lot of wear out of it.

I think she's going to be raiding her brother's closet for the next two decades.

climbing

Who needs a playground when you can just climb the retraining wall around the playground.




He doesn't seem to have a fear of heights...at least not like me.


He was inventing new ways to get up and down the retaining wall. Sky was a little frustrated that she wasn't allowed to join him.

ice cream at the town center

They thoroughly enjoyed their ice cream.

You'd think they were in Paris.


My very expressive little girl.
