While Mommy was Sleeping

Ruby: "Nana can I have a treat?"

Nana: "Sure, what would you like?"

Ruby: "An ice cream cone!"

Nana: "Okay!"

Ruby: "Umm, with sprinkles. And with one of those, um, special white cookies on top."

Nana: "Woah!"

Ruby: "I LOOVE ice cream!"

Nana: "That is MY Granddaughter!"

Five Little Monkeys at the Zoo

Our great time at the Zoo.

Monkeys ONE thru FOUR

and Monkey FIVE (You can pick which one!)

The four oldest Grandkids are starting to converse and play together so well.

After looking at the Monkey exhibit we heard this:

Easton: "Hey Stella, do you want to hold my hand?"

Stella: "Okay!"

We checked out that Butterfly Garden for Papa.

Checking out the Farm Animals.

We even got to pet a snake...

and Goats.

There were kid (and Aunt Shayla) sized tunnels to check out Prairie Dogs...

and Otters.

We saw a mama Wallaby and it's baby literally falling out of its pouch.

There were little fountains that the kid's enjoyed after we were done checking out the animals.

Funny Story about Easton and this little stranger-girl in the picture. We were leaving the Prairie Dog exhibit and Easton was still in the tunnels. I couldn't see him but said into the tunnel, "Come-on Easton we are leaving".

He shouted back, "But I'm busy in the tunnel with this girl".

I said "Do you know the girl?" (hoping it was a cousin).

He shouted back "NOPE!".

At which point we heard a Mom shout into the tunnel "Eva, I hope you aren't the only little girl in there!". We ran into the little girl later while Easton was pretending this Elephant was his fire house and he tried to spray her- so it must not have been a crush in the tunnel.
