We're Going to the Zoo, Zoo, Zoo...

We heard about a Cat in the Hat day at the zoo March 12th, so we loaded up our girls and gear and headed to the zoo! Ava has loved reading the Cat in the Hat dictionary. It's one of her favorites. We had beautiful weather, and seeing as how one little girl was very mobile, you'll see quite a few pictures of her experiencing fun. Maia was not quite walking yet, so she was happy to ride in the stroller and have up close views of the meir cats. I love those!

March Mayhem :)

As March rolled around on the calendar, we were all officially well and somewhat rested from a busy January and February. I plan to post as many photos as I can from March in three or four blog posts so I can really catch up!

The highlight of the beginning of March was Maia turning 11 months old on the 5th. How she's grown since China! Here's our little peanut.





Ava celebrates Dr. Seuss Day! She loves hats of all shapes and sizes.



Giving Maia love...



One beautiful sunny afternoon, we met Mimi and Papa for a walk on the Greenbelt. Ava had a ball, like I once did, looking for ducks, playing on the exercise equipment and following the stream.





Our monkey!



Our fun playdate with Caden Jones! Their family is about to bring home long-awaited Kinsey from China. So excited for them!



Happy Retirement Papa! We love you so much and are so proud of you! We took Dad to the Chop House to celebrate.
