Spring at the Zoo

Grace's 2nd favorite animal in the world - Zuri. She wanted a picture with her so bad, but not being able to get very close to her makes it hard. Not that I really want to get close to an elephant, but my girl sure does! In preschool that morning we talked about birds - and the kids were really excited to see a goose and her little babies near the Elephants.


Max being handsome on the carousel -

So, a little un-funny story. Max has been potty trained for a few months now. He had been accident free for over a month, but wouldn't you know it, he had one right in the middle of the zoo. Well I had promised Grace I would let them play at the park at the zoo but after his accident we had to go. I had a change of clothes for him, but his shoes were soaking wet. Grace screamed at the top of her lungs the WHOLE way home "YOU DON'T KEEP YOUR PROMISES!" over and over and over and over. I admit I started screaming back "What did you want me to do, have him walk around in wet shoes?" and she shouted back, "No! I wanted you to make him go in the toilet!" How sensible of her, why didn't I think of that? Not my shining moment as a mom.
