About a week ago Aunt Tiffer and Uncle Matt called and invited us to go to the zoo with them! We were planning on taking the kids this summer and we thought it would be even funner to go with the cousins!
Here are me and the boys getting ready to go in!
The big reason that we wanted to go this year was because there was going to be dinosaurs at the zoo this year! When we told the boys about them they couldn't wait to go and see them!
Jack didn't want anything to do with the dinosaurs but Trey was loving it! This Dino in particular was great! Every once and awhile it would squirt a kid with water when they weren't expecting it! It was hilarious!!! Trey loved it, him and Carter kept going and standing in front of it waiting to get squirted!
Richard also loved checking out the Dino's!
Carter and Trey loved playing on the elephant that also squirts people! They loved it...Jack not so much still!
3 little monkeys!
Jack did love one thing at the zoo...climbing all the fences!
The 3 boys had fun looking at the tigers through the water! Jack especially liked this because he had, had lunch so he was much happier!
Sweet cousins AnaBelle and Harper! AnaBelle loved riding next to Harper, she wasn't giving up this seat for nothing!
Checking out some weird creature!
Jack looking at the bats!
Trey and Carter chillin' in the stroller!
Digging in the sand maybe for Dino bones!
Trey got to touch some real elephant skin!
Trey and Carter talking about what ever it is that 4 year olds discuss while waiting for the elephant show to start!
Me, Harper and Jack riding the Train! Can I just say how good Harper was! She slept the whole time! Didn't make a fuss once!
Trey and Daddy! We always end the day riding the train and it was great! It was Jack's favorite part of the day and we had tons of fun!
We are so glad that we got to go with Matt, Tiffany, Carter and AnaBelle to the zoo! It was great hanging out with them and the boys just love each other! We loved seeing all the Dino's and can't wait to go back next year when they have Polar Bears! Thanks so much for inviting us we had a great time!
This man has started Swimming Lessons! We have talked about it the last couple of years and never got around to doing it but this year we got him signed up and he is loving it! We have been going for the last week and we have one more week to go! We have to be there everyday at 9am and they last about 30 minutes! Jack unfortunately still isn't old enough to go by himself and since we have Harper he had to sit out this year! Hopefully we can get him in next year! We knew we needed to get Trey into lessons because this kid sinks to the bottom of the pool even with floaties on!!! I was nervous that he was going to be that kid...the one that screams and doesn't want to do anything his teacher tells him to but he's done great!
Always the first one at class! Here he is with his teacher Brayden...Brayden may possibly only be about 2 years old! I have tried to get Trey to ask him how old he is but he won't do it!
Doing the motor boat!
Learning what to do with his arms while swimming on his back! Slide 'em up, Shoot 'em out, push 'em around!!!
They play tons of cute little games! This one they pretend to be trees then when he splashes them with water they grow and get to jump in the water! They get to say what kind of tree they are before they jump in and Trey always plans in the car ride there what he is going to be! He tries to pick out a fruit that no one else will pick! So far he's been a apple, cherry, coconut and peach!
Learning his back float!
When class is all over he slowly swims back over to us to get ready to go! I don't blame him not wanting to get out of that water it is so warm!
Couldn't finish this post without these two cuties! They are both so good during lessons, Harper sleeps and Jack sits has a snack and chases birdies! We are having a great time learning to swim!!!
