The Army Scoot

I have waited all summer to see it and Julia finally started scooting/crawling last week. I was estactic!! The look on her face when she moved from one of the room to another was priceless. She gets around quick now and if you aren't watching her she will try to pull herself up on her not so sturdy toys. Time is going way too fast!!

The Wiggles

The Wiggles wiggled their way through Bloomington tonight so myself and some friends decided to take our kids and try it out. All in all it was a good show. Julia watched, singed, and jumped for about half an hour and spent the rest of the time staring at the man behind her. Whatever keeps her happy right? Julia loved Humpty Dumpty and Dorothy the Dinosaur. Emily was way too cute doing the dances. I can't wait till Julia is at that point.

I paid $30 for this seat. She was going to sit in it even if it swallowed her whole

Two Moms and a Minivan

Jen and I needed a way to end the summer with a bang. What better way then to load the kids into the car and head to the St. Louis Zoo. Even though the boys weren't very supportive, we loaded the van and were out of the driveway by 7:30. We hoped the girls would nap in the car on the way there seeing as though we had 3 hours but nope. After "losing our place on the map" we found the zoo. It started raining and we thought the trip might have been ruined but after 10 minutes, the sun came out and our day looked good. We got to see everything! We had a few minor set backs (running my toe over with the stroller and losing the nail, Jen losing her camera on the train - it was retrieved though, and the girls not napping but a combined 30 minutes the whole trip) but we loaded back in the van and got back into Normal around 7. We still can't believe how great all 3 kids were. It was a hot long trip with minimal naps and we had smiling children at the end. It is going to be an annual trip....just maybe during Spring Break??? Enjoy the pictures.

Julia was more interested in her hand than the fish!

She loved the train!

Again, more interested in her shoe than the fish!

We head out to the Wiggles Show tonight. Catch you up later!
