Dorks on a bus and other never before seen wild animals!

WE all hopped on the bus today and then took the Max to the Zoo. We were going to go to the beach, but weather was supposed to be better at home. While at the zoo, we spotted some pretty crazy animals and 2 wild parents on a bus! Fun was had by all. It was overcast and we saw most of the animals.

How about you, you, you?

We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo...

L. O. V. E.

Just us being silly!

Friday Lunch with Daddy.

Jillian and I took the day off Friday to get some things accomplished before the long weekend. We were on a mission to find her a pair of Summer sandals. Headed over to the NE and got a great pair and then decided to surprise daddy with lunch at the office. We drove over to one of our favorite drive thru spots, Franks a Lot. They have the best Chicago style dogs, this side of Chicago! Jillian downed a whole foot long hot dog! Impressive.

It was fun to hang out. Daddy had to go back to work, we headed home to watch Pirates of the Caribbean II. This kid never ceases to amaze me.

Just another experiment on film...

It was another lull in the day and I was bored so I took a picture of myself in Hipstamatic on my iTouch. Enjoy.

Jillian Won a Coloring Contest!!!!!

I was at New Seasons grocery store the other day and picked up a coloring page thinking it would be fun for Jillian to enter the contest...

We got the call Saturday afternoon that she won, and needed to come by and pick up her prize. The deal is, there were 4 categories by age: 3 and under, 4-5, 6-8 and 9 and up. The prizes went like this: 1st place $15 gift card, 2nd-3rd place $10 gift cards. We picked up her prize and the women all gushed over what an excellent job she did and how talented she was.

She won 1st place in her age group! She got her G.C. and proceeded to the "toy" aisle. She picked out 2 handmade finger puppets, Kid-helper chopsticks, glitter air-dry modeling clay and a recorder (flute like instrument)!! We are SO proud of her and know this is just the beginning.
