Where the wild things are

My best friend from high school, Shelley and her husband Nicky were celebrating their 11th anniversary this weekend. We were delighted when they decided to come to Montgomery with their two PRECIOUS little girls to spend time with us at the zoo! We had a fabulous time with them Saturday! It was supposed to be "storming" as Rich Thomas our weather man warned. It sprinkled on us 1 time and there was hardly anybody at the zoo except for us and 5 other people. Can you believe that??!!!

We felt like we had rented the whole zoo out for ourselves, what fun we had! We saw many animals and Anderson LOVED the animals, he really got excited about the giraffes and the monkeys. This young man was also thrilled with the python! I on the other hand was not. Oh well, if I'm gonna be a boys momma I've got to quit saying "ewwww yucky snakes"! But secretly I still think they are yucky!

Here are Adam and Anderson standing by the bison, I call them buffalo, what the heck is the difference anyways?? Do you know?

We had such a fun day and can't wait to take Anderson back!

For Becky, Can you believe that I didn't take a single pic of Shelley, silly me! ? Her girls are Katelyn 6 and Madelyn 3.

Rain Rain Go Away...

It's been really doing alot of this at our house.

And when you have an 11 month old, you want beautiful weather so that he can go outside and play and play.

Ugh and this is the forecast for this weekend...

This is what we do in the house when it rains outside.

We have been doing alot of this and I just betcha pretty soon, this young man will be walking all over. He's getting so strong with his steps!

Hope you have a great weekend and it is sunny wherever you are! What is your forecast for this weekend?

Please stop...

Please stop growing so fast, Mr. Anderson! Yesterday, you were 11 months old and next month... I don't even want to think that our little baby, will be a big one year old! This month, you have started wanting to walk everywhere (walk with us holding your hands). You are not satisfied if we carry you too much. You are a big boy and refer to the dogs as "tut" who knows about that one?!!You have gotten 3 new teeth this month alone! 7 in all! You LOVE music and you hum with us when we sing! What a blessing you are to your momma and daddy!

Anderson you are the greatest joy in our lives and we love you VERY much!

Your Momma
