A Day at the Zoo

This past week was Spring Break so Little Robby, Jenna and I went to the zoo with our friend Alison and her two children Casjen and Piper (Casjen and Robby were in the same kindergarten class last year.)

Here we are posing in front of the giraffe and ostrich area.

Here Casjen and Robby were looking at the zebra below.

It was fun trying to show Jenna all the animals. I had trouble getting her to look in the right direction, but a couple of times she did point and I think she may have seen what I was showing her. (Or else she was just being cute and pointing because I was pointing too!)

This is one of the little monkeys that we all watched. I like this cage the best because it is a very large enclosure and they let the people walk inside and watch the monkeys climb all around. Sometimes the monkeys even climb over ropes suppended over the sidewalks. It's really enjoyable to watch them do their acrobatics from tree to tree.

This is one of my little monkeys!

A Spring Baseball Game

On March 8th, we had fun taking a family outing to a baseball game. We were disappointed to attend a game where our team lost and was almost beaten to a pulp. For a while, the opponent was beating the us 8-0! All until, the 6th inning when we scored 6 runs (2 runs batted in, and a grandslam!) I had never seen a grand slam in a game that I was attending so that was pretty exciting. In the end, we lost 8-6. Despite the loss, Robby, Little Robby, Jenna and I still had a great time being together!

Smile for the camera!
Jenna is a Daddy's girl!
It was a little chilly that day and Little Robby forgot his jacket, so by the end of the game I was sharing my jacket with him. Jenna decided that she wanted in on the warm fun too!

Jenna loves to wear her food!

I'm Popeye the Sailor Babe...
not really, but this picture reminded me of the Popeye face!

As you can see Jenna looks particularly cute with green mush on her face!
