Zoo Days

One of the best things about living here is being so close to everything. We're never more than 15 minutes to any of our destinations. Aside from all the great parks, the zoo is one of our hot spots. Here's a few moments captured from our last trip. (And a few very natural poses of Katelyn before church this morning.)


The Big Ape


Excited to go in the reptile house (sorry, Mom:)


My favorite- the beautiful snow leopard


Emmy trying to touch Katelyn- Heaven forbid


Really the only reason we come- the carousel!
(That and the cotton candy)
Yes, I know she still has a binkie. But only because I don't want her hands in her mouth


Peeved that the snake was already taken


A little bright for the Sunbeam today


Ready to roll! Thank goodness she loves to get dressed up
because I'd make her do it anyway




And that's what's been going on.

  1. Holy cow, those are two miniature Becky's! It's crazy! They are your little twins. So cute! You're lucky to live so close to all that fun stuff. Glad I found your blog- and even more glad that you're BLOGGING:)

  2. Katelyn makes me laugh so hard. I love all her poses. So glad you're blogging :) Looks like you girls had fun at the ZOO ... can't wait until Bayla gets a little older so she'll enjoy it.

  3. Um, there's no mistaking who these little girls belong to! If their clothes weren't so trendy, I'd think some of these pictures were ones of little Becky 26 years ago. (Did I just give away your age? So sorry:) Am I correct in assuming that your mom is responsible for their wardrobe? Darling.

  4. I want to go to the zoo with the girls. I didn't know Katelyn liked the snakes; that reminds me of Uncle Westie. He loved them until one he caught in the hollow bit his finger. The girls look like the perfect little girls they are :).

  5. I still feel that way about the carousel and cotton candy. Can I have Katelyn's clothes when she's done?

  6. after marybeth finishes with katelyn's clothes, can jonas have them? by the way, I recently found katelyn's birthday present stashed in the closet (addressed and everything, justin was supposed to send it). It is sort of birthday-themed, but I think I'll send it anyway. I hope she isn't too discerning.

  9. I sent you girls a package. it is only addressed to katelyn, but I opened it up and put your and emily's presents in there (it looks a little mangy, sorry). don't let katelyn fool you into keeping all the presents, she is very tricky like that. by the way, do you have any ideas for eric for christmas, I'm at a loss...
