The kids and I are in NY, spending a few days with Jen, Frank, and Nate. It's been a fun and crazy few days! It all started Sunday, when the G's picked up Addie from MarMar and PopPop's and brought her to their house, where Alden and I met them. The kids played on the trampoline, drove Nate's truck, and ate watermelon. Monday morning, everyone got up and dined on Dunkin Donuts (and healthy eggs and banana's, too). Once ready, we all headed to the famous Bronx Zoo!


Driving Miss Addie


VERY excited about his donut

At the Zoo- in time for the Sea Lion feeding!

Addie "up high" to see over the heads of the other people!

Turtle Addie

Turtle Alden

My, what BIG ears you have!

Addie feeding a goat- Alden wanted NOTHING to do with this...

Addie's favorite- the Bug Carousel

Alden's first time on a carousal- and he clutched Jen the entire time!

Addie watching a butterfly in the butterfly garden

Truer words were never said....

Alden LOVED being this close to the gorilla and would have gladly stayed there all day if we had let him! (the gorilla is the black blob in the bottom left- he is laying right next to Alden!)

On the monorail

The kids were enthralled- we saw some great animals up super close!

The polar bear is Nate's favorite- and Addie and Alden loved him, too!

Yes, the tiger was that close!
