At the Zoo

Maddie and I went to the zoo today with Amber and her son, Austin. We had lots of fun with them.

Austin and Maddie in the cave to see the prairie dogs up close.

Playing on the little kiddie beach in the sand.

The best picture I got of the two of them. (Yes Maddie has a different shirt on...little mishap with the Powerade. And Austin has different clothes too...he decided to visit the play fishes while fishing in the kiddie stream.)

Ranch Dressing

Maddie discovered ranch dressing tonight at Buffalo Wild Wings. She has tasted it before but tonight she couldn't stop putting her fork in the dish. We thought it was pretty funny.

It's a...

BOY!!!!

After 2 ultrasounds, we can say with some confidence that we will be bringing a little boy home in August. Definitely have to get some blue to compete with all the pink we have. John couldn't be with me for the 1st ultrasound due to a hockey road trip. So being the loving wife I am, I told him we were having another girl...then sent him the picture above. John was able to make it to my latest ultrasound on Monday and got a peek at the little one.

Nosy Neighbor

It's a good thing that our neighbors weren't home this afternoon. Maddie wasn't really spying on them...she is more interested in their dog. She has a big fascination with doggies right now. If you ask her what a doggie says, she will say "woof,woof" in a very hushed voice.

Catching a peek of the dog

She did finally step away from the fence....

and decided to climb up the slide.

(Proof to help support my claim that sometimes I think I have a monkey and not a little girl)

Splish...Splash

Who knew a water hose could provide this much excitement...

I'm just so happy she isn't scared or afraid of the water. We definitely have lots of fun to look forward to at the Sea World water park this summer.

There is a little video of our fun outside, but after 20 minutes of waiting for it to upload I have given up. Maybe tomorrow it will work...
