ZOO

Today was Bethany and Zachary's first trip to the Fort Worth Zoo, and we couldn't have asked for better weather.  We went with some friends from church to celebrate Keegan's first birthday.  Here's us stopping to see the monkeys with Cohen Ross.

I tried to get my kids to make elephant noises.

Looking at the giraffes.

Watching the other kids climb and play.

With the birthday boy.

Bethany and Zachary were so tired after lunch.  They were asleep before we got to the car.



Future Flag Girl

I went back and found this picture from May 2008!

Now Katie's 4 1/2, and she still loves to practice her flag skills.  She was using a golf club :)

My Little Valentines

Happy Valentine's Day!  We spent yesterday afternoon playing outside at my parents' house and enjoying the beautiful day.  Thank goodness for the warmer weather!  I can feel spring getting closer.

Pitter-Patter

First, I have to thank my dad for bringing me lunch AND watching the kids for an hour while I went grocery shopping!  I can't believe we're supposed to get winter weather again tomorrow, so our kitchen is stocked just in case.  Bethany and Zachary L-O-V-E playing in the kitchen, especially at the doggy door.  Here's a video of them walking around this afternoon.

More Snow

Thank goodness Aaron's been home most of the day today!  Like many of you, I haven't left the house since Monday night.  We've been playing a lot, and the nice part about twins is they always have a playmate.  Aaron went to Lubbock for work on Wednesday and got back Thursday, after his plane was delayed a couple of hours.  I'm thankful he made it there and back safely...and he was able to stop at Walmart on the way home for diapers and wipes!  Here are some more pictures from today.

No shadow means an early spring!

Happy Groundhog Day :)

Punxsutawney Phil predicts an early end to winter, but we're still stuck inside.  The kids don't seem to mind...they're just playing as usual.  They didn't even notice our 15-20 minutes without power during the rolling blackout.  I just put them down for a nap, so I guess I'll go get under a blanket and do a little reading!

Snow Day

I took the kids outside for about a minute, and they weren't too thrilled with the snow!  They're much happier inside, but Rudy would love to play all day.  Maybe when Daddy gets home!
