Put Me In The Zoo

Over Memorial Weekend, I got to take my first trip to the zoo with Daddy and Mama. Uncle Tanner, Uncle Brent, Aunt Lori and Lily came with too.

See the monkeys holding us, oops I mean behind us!

Uncle Tanner and I found a huge turtle. Turtles are one of my favorite animals. We even saw real ones.
Check out these pretty birds behind Lily, Aunt Lori and Uncle Brent.

I couldn't get enough of them. I wanted to go down and swim by them but Mama wouldn't let me.
Lily had such a good time, she zonked out before we even finished!
I found some cute little goat friends at the farm. Mama used to have one of these for a pet when she was little. I wonder if I could get one too???
I wonder what everyone is staring at???


I really like this little chick too but it took a little encouragement to pet it. It's so little!
We found some camels
and some bison.
What was your favorite animal at the zoo, Lily? I think all the animals were great too! What a fun day!

Rice Krispie Treats

This past Friday, I got to spend the day with my cousins Jacey and Morgan, Aunt Missy and Mommy. Aunt Missy helped Jacey and I do some baking. So we made an all-time favorite- Rice Krispie Treats!
I helped pour the Rice Krispies.
and of course, while we waited for our treat to be ready, we did what every good baker does. . . eat off the spoon!

My first real haircut

Can you believe I'm almost 20 months old and getting my first haircut? This past week, Mama took me to visit Abbie for my first cut. I was excited about it but I didn't really know what I was getting into. . .
It was a little scary so I wasn't going to let go of Mommy or my cup.
Plus Mamey (aka Aunt Missy) was there but she looked a little strange.
I don't think haircuts are as fun as Mama says yet, but I'm sure in time I will think differently. As scary as it was, I do agree with Mama and Daddy that Abbie did a nice job and I look "booful!"

Hangin' at the Park

A couple weekends ago, Mama and Daddy took me to the park. It was a windy day and a I was a little crabby so I was very particular about how I wanted to be pushed in the swing. Really, I just wanted to sit in the swing and have Mom and Dad look at me. After I was done crying a river from Daddy and Mama taking me out of the swing, I decided to try out the slides with Daddy's help.
It's a little scary! Hold onto me tight, Daddy!
Weee! That was fun! Way to go, Daddy! Check out my crazy hair.
After the park, we went to Grandma and Papa Majerus'. I've had a little more practice in their swing, so this time I loved to be pushed high and again got really upset when it was time to be done. This is a major improvement for me though. The beginning of the spring, I went through a phase where I was pretty scared of the swing. Now, I've pretty much become a swing hog.

The many hats I wear

I love hats!!! Lately, Daddy's cowboy hat has been my favorite hat. I think I look pretty good in it too!
Just a little big for me!

They say every girl has a favorite accessory. Some like shoes, some like purses. Me, I'm definately a hat girl! I'd even rather use my purses as hats! I've actually been a little sad lately that Mama won't let me wear my winter hat anymore. But I guess that just means we get to go shopping for summer hats! You can find anything to use as a hat. You'd be amazed how resourceful I am!

My outdoor friends

I was starting to think that this new sibling on the way was already starting to steal the spotlight since it has been so long since mama has made any new posts for me. Mama claims it's just because she hadn't been feeling very well before. I almost wouldn't have believed her, but if it weren't for Daddy most days I wouldn't have been fed, diapered, or bathed. Don't worry, things have been much more fun lately.

I've been spending more time with my kitties and puppy. This is my favorite kitty because she comes to visit me the most. I guess she's not a kitty anymore though and Mama is not the only one expecting a baby around here! I think Mama has it easy compared to this cat. Atleast, Mama only has 1 on the way!

Snapper and I are about to share secrets . . .

and kisses!

Can you believe Snapper turns 5 years old this month?!?
