The Zoo

Owen's officially 3 years old now. Wow. He absolutely loved the zoo and was an absolute joy to be with ALL day long. He definitely had fun knowing that he had mom AND dad's complete attention all day long. We had planned to take Isaiah too, until the night before we went. I was getting everything out to take for him and thought, "What the heck am I doing taking a baby to the San Diego Zoo ALL day in this heat!?!?!" So I frantically got a few sitters lined up for the day...Thank goodness I found a few. All day long we were thankful we didn't have the stroller, or a crying baby!

Owen loved the sky tram and the double decker bus rides. It was pretty hot that day, but there was plenty of shade and we stopped for drinks a lot. He still thinks that Halloween and his birthday are all one big event and keeps asking why there are decorations everywhere for his birthday and Halloween. I haven't found the best way to explain it to him obviously, because he is still confused;)

There are a lot of pictures. Enjoy:)


Big boy on his special day:)
Going up on the sky tram...he giggled with excitement every time.




Couldn't help but put this pic of flamingos on here. They are just so weird!

Owen's 3!!! Almost...

It's that time of year again! Fall is my favorite season; the cool mornings and evenings, football, comfort food...and Owen's birthday! I will love December too when it is Isaiah's birthady, but for now I love Octover (as Owen calls it). We have had a busy few weeks and have already had some birthday celebrations even though Owen's birthday isn't until this Friday, the 14th. Owen celebrated his birthday at school today and we took guitar shaped rice krispie treats to share with his friends. (My camera battery died before I could get a pic of the treats.) We went to Tanaka Farms pumpkin patch last Saturday with some great friends and had some family over yesterday for a last second birthday party for Owen. Isaiah is now crawling and cruising along furniture. He still eats anything we put in front of him and is helping Owen eat new foods too;) We will post pics of our zoo trip that we will be taking this Thursday...so stay tuned:)
