The Latest Goings On...


Just wanted to share some recent pictures showing what we've been up to lately. This first one has no story to go with it, just a cute picture of my cute girl in her cute clothes. :)




These were taken out at Lone Pine Farm the other weekend. Abby really seems to have an affinity for animals, as is shown by her huge smile, and Zach liked feeding the little goats. We went on the cow train too, but of course I don't have any pictures of that. Darn!



Zach and Abby having a great time on the swings at the park. Daddy looks like he is having fun too!




Story time!
Zach displaying his latest obsession...playing dress up. Usually this involves mommy's clothing, and sometimes he'll throw on this nifty wig too. He has a great time until we tell him how beautiful he looks, and then he gets a bit defensive, says "I'm not beautiful!" and takes off the outfit. It's pretty humerous.
Abby, who is now crawling, (army-crawl style) made it all the way from the kitchen into the bathroom and thought she was hot stuff because of it! She was so excited and kept turning around to make sure I was watching her. Then she would squeal with delight and go a little further. So cute!

Decorating and eating the Halloween cookies that Zach and I made. Yum!
So that's it for now. We've got a lot more pumpkin patch pictures that I need to post, so check back for those later. Gotta love the pumpkin patch!

A little trip to the zoo...













Ok, it's been awhile since we've had an update now....I've had a hard time moving on from Zach's birthday it seems! Anyway, last Friday Andy took the day off work and we headed up to Portland to go to the zoo. Zach had never been before so we thought he would get a kick out of seeing all of the animals and how big they are! Of course, the weather had been great ALL week until Friday so we got rained on. Figures! Actually one of my favorite things about our outing was Zachary talking about the rain and hoping that the animals weren't going to get soggy. He's so funny! Here are a few pics of our time there.....which wasn't long since Abby was tired and crabby, and Zach, who was also tired from walking all around, didn't end up getting as excited about everything like we thought he would, so he was very ready to leave and go visit Aunt Karen (Andy's sis) after a couple of hours. It didn't help that a couple of the best exhibits (primates and predators) were closed for some reason too. Oh well! It was still a fun time. :)
