the park, the zoo, and honey's birthday

It's already a week into March and I have yet to blog. Crazy. We have been having a great month so far. The weather has pretty much been awesome. We love being outside. We have been sidewalk-chalking and tricycle riding up a storm. We also LOVE walking to the park and playing on the playground and sliding and swining. Ty had his first swinging experience this week. He was a little confused but I think overall he liked it.


Are yall so sick of the iphone pics!? I totally am.
I just seem to have my arms full everytime I leave the house and so the camera isn't picked up. I wish I had used my real camera for these pictures for sure. Kinley is already starting to dress up Ty in her dress up clothes.


We also made a trip to the Zoo on Monday. It's no surprise we love the zoo. We have been and blogged it many, many, many times. We went with Jen, Eden and Jack. The weather was in.cred.ible. Truly gorgeous. Everyone was perfect and so sweet and happy. We ate lunch and took our time through the exhibits and what could have been chaos was so relaxing. I loved it. The boys were troopers in the stroller while the girls hopped in and out of the wagon throughout the park.

They also climbed on pretty much any animal statue they could for a picture.




The HUGE hit this time was the bird sanctuary. For some reason every time I have been before the birds could not have cared less that you had food on a stick for them. They just flew around you. But, this time, they were totally interactive and jumped on the sticks to eat. Holding the birds totally topped just feeding the birds and it was awesome.



This is the best I could get with both girls in a picture holding birds. Kinley's is kinda hard to see but its on there.


Here is Ty taking it all in.

He was beat after lunch and napped for a bit.

Also, yesterday was my mom's birthday! She is in Africa right now on a mission trip with her church. We are missing her like crazy but, so proud of her and my dad and their team for being the hands and feet of Jesus and spreading His love to all the nations. We can't wait for her to come back and celebrate but, we did send her a quick birthday song video yesterday morning. It was her birthday night there for her but, she got it and loved it.

We have started planning Kinley's 3rd birthday around here. Invites just went out yesterday and we are getting really pumped. The theme was totally Kinley's idea this year and she is SO excited about it. Much more to come on that soon, I promise!
