The Zoo Trip

Evia and I went to the zoo earlier this week. She had a great time. Next time, I will call the zoo to make sure that 8 different schools don't have field trips scheduled for the same day. It was insane with all the first graders running around.

The monkey exhibits were the big hit of the day. We spent about 20 minutes at the orangutan enclosure. The baby orangutan was playing with Evia through the plexiglass.

She later was bored with the animals and found the leaves very interesting.

Splash Park 2010

Evia loves the splash park. We'll be spending a lot of time there this summer. I bought her a swimsuit and water shoes for our next visit.

I love this picture of Evia and Randy. Evia was running all out to give daddy a hug. Randy caught her before he ended up soaking wet, too.

Easter Egg Hunt

Evia had her spring party and egg hunt at school today. She really enjoyed the snacks since she doesn't get cupcakes and cheese puffs at home.

We went to the park today because the weather was so nice. We tried a new park, but it wasn't really set up for 2 year olds. Here's Evia throwing a fit because mommy is trying to help her swing in the big kid swings.

So we let her swing by herself and this is how she did it.

Rainy Day Wagon Ride

Evia loves her wagon, even if it's rainy outside.

Evia and Santa

Santa came to our church. Evia was not a fan.


It was funny to see her waving and saying hi to Santa while crying.

Splash Park

My mom, dad, sister, brother-in-law and Bennett came to visit this past weekend. We went to the park to let the kids play and run around. There is a water splash park there, but we thought it would be off because it is October. We were wrong. Randy and I were watching Evia and Bennett play in the water area when the water suddenly came on and sprayed all of us. There was no keeping Evia and Bennett out of the water. They thoroughly enjoyed running and playing.
