Zoo Life

We met the Silvermans and the Carlsons bright and early Sunday morning at the zoo. 9 am! Sadly, we weren't even rushed to get there. We had all been up for a few hours at that point. Between the 3 families we have 6 kids that are 2 and under. We don't travel lightly - there were two double strollers, one wagon, two baby bjorns, 3 bottles, 3 sippy cups, many bottles of sunscreen, many bags of snacks, and 6 very happy kiddos!

Annabelle is such a good big sister. Who needs to ride in the wagon when you can pull it?

It looks as though our work here is done.

The Silverman twins are 6 months old and were very smiley!
Now that's a zoo crew!

After the zoo the girls took great naps (I did too!) and then we met up with the Carlsons at the Littleton Historical Museum for Gwyneth's 1st birthday portrait session. It was a great location for the shoot and the older kids enjoyed the petting zoo. I can't wait for a sneak peek of the pictures - GG wore pigtails, her cupcake shoes and top, and a TUTU! It was stinkin' adorable.
After the pictures the Carlsons invited us for dinner at their house. It was delicious; GG and Ben munched for most of our visit. Annabelle and Jack played and enjoyed their dinner together as well as lemonade cupcakes for dessert. We took a bit of a step back though - the girls freaked out about the dogs. The dogs were outside most of the time, but as Annabelle would walk by the door she'd say 'No, no, puppies'. We reminded her it was their house and she was not the boss of the puppies....that's Jack's job!

  1. What a busy day! Isn't it amazing how something so little requires so much. It's like a mental checklist to make sure you got everything for them!
