Outing as a family

This past weekend we decided to brave the weather and head to the Zoo. It never rained on us but boy was it COLD! The were doing a special valentine's day treats for some of the animals so we thought that would be fun to watch. Needless to say when you are doing the zoo with a 3 1/2 year old you never really get to stay and watch some of the things that you want to watch. The only one we got to watch was the Walrus getting his teeth brushed. Elliott thought that was the coolest thing. His other favorite part of the outing was playing the fantastic Kid's Zone. It is so much easier to do outings now that Edith is almost 1!




Always a highlight of our Zoo trips!




The Famous Shark Mouth Picture!


Elliott loved watching the porcupine!


Our Favorite Animal!

We are way past nap time at this point but still a trooper!

Home Depot Clinic

Since Edith was born we have been trying to do something special with Elliott so we started do the Home Depot Kids Clinics. He loves it because he gets to build stuff with daddy and use real tools. This past one was a heart shelf for Valentine's Day and he loved it. They also built a few that we had missed in the past.



They do love each other!

So it is so cut to watch Edith and Elliott play. They love each other so much one of them sometimes a little to much but he is learning. They have been interacting more and more with each other now that Edith is getting older and mobile. Here are a few pictures of them playing together.
