Adventures in Hannie Land!

Miss Hannah LOVES the library so Mimi and G-pa (Scott and Carol aka Grandma and Grandpa) decided to take Hannah and I to the BIG Library down town!! But before we went they took us to this great restaurant on the river.
It was a LONG drive but well worth it!!!


Mimi and G-paw (he was smiling at Hannah instead of the camera!)

Choosing what she wanted to eat (from the drink menu of course, lol)

A pause from coloring to smile for mommy!


What a goof ball!!


Check out the curls! LOl
She was watching the boats go by on the river.



Elbows on the window sill watching the boats.



Coloring with Mimi and G-paw. She started this thing where she wants everyone to color with her!




G-paw and Hannah watching the barge go by.



I love this picture!
You can tell how much they love her.

I got some great books while we were there too.
Ahh..the memories.... :)

Spontaneous Zoo trip!

Yesterday we were invited to the zoo by a friend of mine from the play group! We were very excited and I kept telling Hannah that we would be going to the zoo to see the elephants and monkeys! She would get very excited whenever I told her.
So we spent about 5 hours there! It was so much fun! It was perfect weather, warm but not hot, and a bit of a breeze.
We stopped at a park on the way to meet up with my friend and feed the ducks then we went to the zoo from there.
Well you can look at the pictures to find out what we did!
Enjoy!!!


Tearing up the bread to feed the ducks at the park!

Feeding the ducks
She says "Frow da bwed" and "Duck! QUACK QUACK"

Examining which flower to smell first

Mutilating a flower

Riding the zebra

She loved the carousel this time!


One on this cheek!


One on that cheek!

And one on the mouth, of course!

The papa gorilla



She sees a cat in the cat house up in the corner! She says "ders da cat! MEOWWWW!"






The new baby cheetah we saw at the nursery




These two pictures are my absolute FAVORITES!






She fussed and cried about 30 minutes till we left because she was tired. I tried carrying her in the sling, letting her walk, and putting her in the stroller. Finally after the train ride, she passed out! Then we went home.
