At the Pizza Playground...

William and I made our way to the zoo again today. We had a good time, even though it was crowded with school groups. William was totally fixated on the statues today, which is funny since he has always been afraid of them before. He was wiped after the trip and fell asleep before we even left the parking lot!

Super William!

William seemed to think this was the required equipment to be a super reader! He kept saying stuff from Super Why while he was riding around in this ensemble! Too cute!

Monocacy Battle Field Hike...

They made the trail wheelchair accessible which worked out great for William. Jason just kept telling him to stay on the "bridge"!

Checking out the Monocacy River...

Lil' Willy Reb...

William enjoyed this "create your own headline" newspaper set up...

What little boy doesn't love climbing on cannons?

William and Daddy went out for a history lesson and some exercise today at the Monocacy Battlefield. The battles started on July 9th 1864 and lasted 3 days. The Union Soldiers won. It is a very green, hilly area and it looked like it would have been a heck of a place to try and fight a battle, there were hiding places everywhere!

Vacation...

Happy Easter!
A man and his Jelly beans...

Will helped Dave plant flowers...

He loved it, and was very gentle...

And then watered them VERY well...

A group of zombies, caused by Baby Einstein...

Hunting Easter eggs...
Once he found one, he didn't feel the need to look for more.

Day 2 at the beach!

Jason just let him take off down the beach to see how far he would go...

He went a long way!

Learning to Boogie Board with Alex...

Julia dug this amazing hole, it even made it past the water line!

Our happy little family!

Post beach ice cream at Shelby's...

William ate the cone from the side, check out his lap!

It was such a mess!

Brushing goats at the zoo....

We got to feed the giraffes again...I love that!

We had such a nice trip, filled with sun, ocean waves, great friends, and wonderful food. William had such a great time running all over with the kids, they were so sweet to him, and Julia even got him to eat! He adored poor Abby, and she tolerated him with so much patience. It was so great for Jason and I to see the kids again, they all change so quickly! They are all so smart, and have such great personalities, and Claire is at that adorable singing stage, which Jason and I love. I am so glad we got such a nice break from all the stress we have been under lately!

Happy Easter!

Jacksonville Here We Come!

We are leaving bright and early tomorrow morning for Florida! Jason and I are really looking forward to a few days of relaxation. Now we just have to survive the trip down....
Have a wonderful Easter to all my loved ones!
