Ruie playing with whatever she can get her hands...er I mean mouth on.
LJ picked me flowers fresh from the yard. He said he got me super soft ones. Roots and all =)
An attempt to get a picture of all the kids together.
Another attempt
Old schoo McDonald's highchairs
Titus saying, "cheese" and waiting for his picture to be taken.
Josiah's last few days of being two.
We also got to go right up to the monkeys and feed them.
The hippos are still our favorite.
Watching the elephant show.
And we got to see them feed the crocodiles. It was pretty impressive.
Titus being a helpful bigger brother and turning the swing on.
After falling asleep in Anna's arms, she layed her down. Ruie stayed in this curled up position for quite awhile.
When Audrey was learning the letter A, she got to make some homemade applesauce. Here she is enjoying the fruits of her labor.
He's two in a couple of months and for the first time he decided to play with toys. Yes, he went and got this bucket of blocks, dumped them out and proceeded to play with them. I was amazed. This kid is usually into everything he's not suppose to be in (Dad's drawers of electronics, batteries, knives, cables, etc.). He initiated paying with toys since this kodak moment, but at least I now know he's capable.
He comes up to me and says, "Mom, today is going to be a good day!"
He is a non stop ball of energy, way goofy and I can't believe he's going to be 3 in less than 2 weeks.
The rocks the kids love to climb and the future spot of a tree fort.
LJ and Audrey have been asking Kevin to build them a fort. A family from church gave us some of their old wood. My kids got to help prep the wood. They enjoyed painting.
