Mommy and The Bear
I don't know which of the next two photos are funnier. This one where he seems to be jauntily skipping and having a great time....
... or this one where he's scarfing down his lunch

See ya next time Zoo!

Zoo Day 1

The Dallas Zoo lowered it's admission price to $5.00 during February. It was such a good deal, Jack got to go two days in a row. We all three went with Nana K. and Papa K. on Sunday and then Jack and Heather went on Monday with his buddy Michael and his mom and dad. Also on Sunday, his neighbor friend Gracelyn and her parents showed up and we ran into them a few times.

Here are the highlights from Day 1.

Recently

This is how the boy takes a lot of his meals lately....
He also likes to climb in our bed and watch TV. He has to have "his" remote and a book, one of us has to be next to him, also with a remote and a book.

Snow Day #417

Man, we're getting cabin fever around here. We did squeeze in a few activities to keep our sanity.

Snow flake craft project (the wild hair feeds his creativity, so don't judge)...
A little male modeling (what a difference a good brushing makes)...
