Paizley's Baby Shower

Melody is having a girl!  We can't wait.  She had a beautiful shower thrown by Grandma Lene and Cynthia.  It turned out so cute and they had so many people come out to support her!  It was fun to see a lot of family that we haven't been able to in awhile.  All the grandmas got to love on little Eli!

Jonas' 2nd birthday!

Jonas turned 2 against my wishes.  I can't believe he is so big.  He is such and easy, happy boy, full of love and is so fun!  I enjoy every minute with this boy of mine!

Jonas birthday trip to the zoo!

Jonas is 2! I can't believe it really (even though when I am writing this, he has been 2 for awhile!).  It was a half a day for Kiana at school.  She had a program at school, and then we ran to Mc Donalds  to grab lunch, and went to the zoo as a family.  We decided to get season passes again so we can go all summer.
I think Jonas liked to sit and watch the monkeys the most.  I think this is his first time that we went to the zoo that he can remember, that he actually got out and enjoyed.  Going through the pictures, we took a ton, but they sure explain the fun we had!


R-U-G-R-A-T-S!

Kiana and Maile on the seal!


This year the zoo has an exhibit where some of the animals are done in lego form.  They are really neat.  I don't remember the exact number, but there is an amazing amount of legos it takes to make one of these.

Me and my birthday boy!


Momma Polar bear and her cubs!

Eli was there too!  He just wasn't in many pictures or really enjoying the animals.


The Siberian tiger with pretty Kiana.  This is the closest I have ever seen him.

He looks like he wants to eat her....

Maile with the tiger!

A cute family photo.  We are sitting in front of the legos of the red pandas, Steve's favorite animal. The real ones are no longer at the zoo.
