Milwaukee Zoo

Cam took off today last minute so we could go to the Milwaukee Zoo. It was PERFECT weather so we couldn't pass this fun family day up!! Here is Colin all ready to go!! He asked me to take a pic of his sunglasses. Then he asked me to take a pic of his books he was bringing in the car with him...not sure why but I am happy my kids love posing for the camera:) Kaitlyn sporting her kids Dolce and Gabbana sunglasses! Doesnt every girl need a pair:)

We were lucky enough to have first row for the penguin feeding. The trainer was so nice! Colin was even picked to ask a question in front of everyone about the penguins caves:)

Kaitlyn loved the pretty flamingos!!

We went to the sea otter show and had seats right up front!

Colin loved seeing the sharks!!

Colin really wanted to see the snakes. Eeewww!! This was thru the glass...looks like he is actually touching the snake doesn't it?!?!

Getting ready to have lunch!

We went thru the dinosaur exhibit. K & C kept saying how their cousins Reid and Jay would love to see these huge dinosaurs!! They looked and sounded so real!!

Both kids were excited about the polar bears!!

Colin was so brave and went in the petting zoo to pet the goats. He thought they were so funny!!

Yes, wash, wash wash after touching the goats!!!!

I love that the kids always hold hands without being told....they are just too cute!!

After a lot of walking and a TON of fun this is all Cam and I could see hanging out of the jogging stroller at the end of the day while we were pushing the kids to the car:) Cute and very tired little toes!!! What a great day!!!

Class Picnic

Monday we had a class picnic at the park. Kristina and I organized it. We also were babysitting our friend Alivia's son Jakob so he came with. Kaitlyn and Colin just love little Jake!! They were my big helpers that day!! Makes me realize that they would both make a great big brother or sister....NOT that it will ever happen though:)

Here are some pics....I didn't take many. Colin was very busy running around that I didn't even catch him to get a pic:)

Craig & Jill's House

We had a BLAST this weekend at Uncle Craig and Auntie Jill's house! Here are a ton of pics from our weekend at their pool! I have to say that laying by the pool sipping fruity drinks is something I could get used too:)

Cam tossing Jay around in the pool:)


Reid, Jay, Kaitlyn and Colin enjoying a yummy lunch poolside!

Colin jumps off the diving board and almost does a belly flop! Ouch!!

Grandma and Papa were there too!

Colin loves Reid and Jays pool toys!!

Poor Reid and Jay were in a lot of ear pain from swimmer ear:( Here is Reid chilling on a raft trying not to get too much water in his ears.

Colin was blasting Kaitlyn and I with this huge thing!!!

See...he has good aim!

The kids loved when daddy would lift them up and toss them into the water!!

Uncle Craig was throwing the ball at Colin to catch mid air off the diving board....almost Colin!!

Silly Uncle Craig relaxing under the waterfall:)

Um....Kaitlyn wheres your swim suit?!?! She was walking around the pool deck at the end of the day and kept loosing her towel flashing everyone:)

Reid and Jay were showing the kids how to play some fun Wii games!!!

After about 6 or 7 hours at the pool Cam and Craig were relaxing:) Thanks for a great weekend Craig and Jill!!
