Fabulous Frogs

This morning Will and I went to the last 2 year old class for the season. Before class we walked around the back half of the zoo. We got to see one of the elephants with a bunch of hay on it's head. Will thought the elephant was wearing a hat.




Today's class was all about frogs. We got to meet Pac Man, the Ornate Horned Frog.

We will miss going to the 2 year old classes this summer, but they will resume in the fall once school starts again. Will really seems to enjoy them.

Happy Mother's Day

We woke up to a big surprise on Mother's Day morning; snow. It is a little disappointing to see snow the second week of May, but hopefully it is a transient presence. We went to church in the morning and then had both sets of grandparents over in the afternoon. Bill did all the preparation and cooking and we had a delicious steak dinner. In the morning I got the best Mother's Day gift ever. I think I have felt "Bean" move a few times but today at church, "Bean" must have had the hiccups and I got to see "Bean" move in my belly several times. What a great way to celebrate Mother's Day!!

On Saturday, Bill and Will picked me up from work and we headed to Medina for A Day Out With Thomas. Last year when we went it was very cold but sunny. We were hoping for better weather this year, especially since the weekend before was sunny and in the 80's. We were set up for major disappointment as it was 37 and raining. We tried to make the best of it but it certainly put a major dampener on the afternoon.

Great- Grandma Zink's 80th Birthday Dinner

Yesterday we got to celebrate Great- Grandma Zink's 80th Birthday. Several of us met at a local restaurant for dinner and then we went back to their house for cake and presents. It was great to see everyone and we all enjoyed the evening with family!

Friday afternoon we went to a Portrait Party at the Daffodil Meadow. Unfortunately, since it has been so hot this spring, all the daffodils had come and gone. But the kids had a great time running around and burning off some toddler energy.

Slithering Snakes

Friday Will and I went to another 2 year old class at the zoo. We learned all about snakes and had the opportunity to meet Elvis the California King Snake from a distance. Will thought it was really funny to see the snake stick out his tongue. He kept saying, "Silly snake".

On Tuesday April 27 I had my 16 week doctor checkup and Will got to go with me. On the way to the doctor's office Will told me that "Baby Bean" was going to be brave at the doctor. After the appointment he kept saying "Baby Bean was soooooo brave". He says the cutest things.
