Happy Mother's Day!

We have had a nice weeked with some of the special Moms in our lives.  Happy Mother's Day to all of the wonderful Moms out there!


Lunch with Grandma, Grandpa, Great Grandma and Great Papaw

Church and Dinner with Gigi and Grandpa
I wanted to go to the zoo for Mother's Day.  Uncle John and Uncle Stephen are on a safari in Africa, so we decided to take our own safari at the Fort Worth Zoo.  So fun!   We went early in the day to beat the crowds and the heat.
Watching the meerkats.


Meerkats doing what they do...

Giraffes!

Big Elephants

But Yes the Hippopotamus...but not the armadillo.  If you have
read Sandra Boynton's Hippo book you know what I am talking about!

Turtles!
The bears and tigers were sleeping when we walked by at the zoo; however, the jaguar was putting on a show.  He even gave a few loud roars that Brock was trying to imitate.  So cute!!!!

Birthday Party Fun

Brock had a busy social calendar this weekend.  He attended little Miss Brooke's 2nd birthday party on Saturday.  She had a farm animal theme and even a petting zoo!  Brock wasn't sure what to think at first.

Of course, I sent Brock into the zoo with Daddy, while I stayed safely on the outside...
"Daddy, that's not a dog.  What is it?"


"Bunny?  That doesn't look like Mr. Bunny Aunt MJ gave me for my birthday!"

"Okay, maybe I will give the ducks a chance.  Maybe..."


"Mommy, get me out of this zoo!"
Sunday he attended Oliver's 2nd birthday party at MyGym.  He had a blast!  It was the perfect party for a rainy, COLD afternoon.  Yes, we were in short sleeves at 90 degrees on Saturday and long sleeves at 40 degrees on Sunday!
