The very BEST time of the year!

"Oh Woe is Me" Act I

Nate didn't care for the conservatory and riding in the stroller when we first got to the zoo. So, I let him walk beside the stroller as we walked around looking at the animals. Still, he was not thrilled for some reason - call it the remarkable TWO's! I think it was all the talk about stay by Mommy... or watch for strollers ... or watch for people; say excuse me ... and many more STAY by Mommy's. Here he is performing a sit-down strike to vent his anguish -

You can see one guy appears to be clapping for his performance of Oh, Woe is Me! What was a Mom to do other than to take a couple of pictures and wait for the finale. Meanwhile, some people walked by with their toddler on a LEASH...
Is it the answer? Who am I to judge.

Another Picture from the Zoo!

At the Zoo Conservatory

John as a Statue

While visiting the zoo yesterday, we saw an incredibly lifelike statue of John! The creator did an amazing job at capturing John's profile and physique! In fact, Nate saw John's statue, pointed and said, "Daddy!!!!!"

Not Stopping for a Minute!

A Day at the X

Nate was in heaven on the ice this weekend when we went to the Xcel Center for a Fox family event sponsored by the Wild! One of Nate's first words was hockey but we never took notice of his passion for the ice until recently. Nater definitely LOVES hockey and being on the ice. He even made some new friends...

The Family Portrait that Wasn't

This weekend we went to Taylor's Falls and this was an attempt at a family portrait. Note the look on Nater's face; he was getting hungry at this point. Mommy and Gavin almost fall while tripping over a hole. This one will not make it into the Christmas card this year!
