We Went to the Zoo Too!

We went to the zoo today with Oliver's friends Annika, Greta, and Annabel (and their parents). We had a great time! Oliver and Bel had a good discussion going over who the pretzels belonged to:

Oliver: Mine!
Bel: No!
Oliver: Mine!
Bel: No!
Oliver: Mine!
Bel: No!

You get the drift =)

A sleepy sea lion...

These are called Gibbons, but Oliver called them monkeys ("bunkees"). They were really fun to watch (and hear)!

The Holmans came over for dinner tonight too. The food was good, and the kids had fun rearranging the pantry.

Weekend in Michigan

Here are a few highlights of our trip to MI this weekend!

It's Actually Snowing this Time

So we are having a snow day with actual snow. We played outside for a while this morning. Oliver loved the sled and climbing on the play structure knee-deep in snow (at least knee-deep for him).

Oliver has been walking around the house for hours at a time with these Spiderman knee pads strapped to his feet. He calls them his "Spi-mn shoos".

1st Haircut!

With a little help from Elmo, a car chair, and some fruit snacks, Oliver sat for his 1st haircut!

Cincinnati Zoo

It was supposed to be 50 degrees today and somewhat sunny, so I planned a trip to the zoo. It really only got to about 35, but we went anyway. It was fun (and a bit cold)!

This pic got a bit steamy in the bird area.

Oliver's favorite exhibit...a skid steer ("sk-sk") and excavator ("a-la-la-la").

Snow Day, Part III

I've taken a bunch of pictures over the last 3 snow days, but this one is my fav.

Snow Day at the Aquarium

I didn't actually buy this picture (clearly), but I still wanted to post it!
