The goat whisper and princess go to the zoo

* sorry for the poor quality of these pics but they were too funny not to share. *
So, C has been a busy little guy lately. He's into EVERYTHING! As he grows so do our "games". We have a new updated version of the what fits in what game.

He got a little people school bus for his birthday and he loves it. In fact, earlier this day he tried to ride it but with his weight it just wouldn't move. I tried to explain that the bus didn't have good shocks but that was lost on him. So, back to the game. He decided that the table in our entry way was the perfect parking spot for the bus. Thankfully it fit, he had already tried several other spots earlier in the day that were a bust and well, sometimes its the small victories!






We have also discovered brooms. He likes to "help" mom sweep.....but really once he's done in the kitchen he just carries it around. As you can see above, the broom wasn't going to stop him from putting the bus in its place.


The next day we went to the Zoo with Eden and her mommy, Charity. We love this Zoo, its perfect for toddlers and just outside of Denton. I think we picked the HOTTEST day of the summer. It was pushing 95 degrees at 10am. YUCK. We were all dripping. We did stop at the petting Zoo and let the kids walk around for a little while.



Christopher liked talking to the goats. That is until, one stuck his head out the hole. Neither of them liked that much!



Love the "critter xing" sign in the background!




Sweet Eden walks on her tip toes..... 100 % of the time. Its so cute, and man, takes some serious balance. As a tip toe walker myself, I remember being retrained at 8 to walk normally. Still, right now, its just too cute!







We can't wait to go back but were going to wait for fall... That heat is for the birds!

Fun with food

Sorry for the lack of posting for a few weeks. My editing software wasn't communicating with my new camera = lots of work to get things posted. Anyway, just wanted to share this. I love to cook, but I'm not the best baker. Outside of banana bread, we take the wait and see approach to see how anything will come out.

A few months ago we grilled out and saw these on one of my favorite sweet sites and just had to try! That's right, its hamburger and fries.....the dessert kind. Aren't they just so cute!







I love having fun with food and love it when that food is SWEET!
