Baking with EJ - Cookies

We baked cookies again, but this time I put the mixer down on EJ's table. 

He was so excited!

Test Drive

This cool stroller was handed down to us by a neighbor. We gave it a good washing and then took it out for a spin! Up until now, our only double stroller was a double BOB, which I love and adore and could not live without, but it's a little too big for places like doctors' offices and small stores. I'm so excited to have a more compact double stroller now! 

Pete the Barber

I couldn't watch.

Note the lovely red glow from the plastic covering our then missing skylight.

All finished! Pete did a pretty good job!

Reading

"I can read. I turn pages. I'm reading. Reading. Reading a book."

He can't read. He can turn pages, though!

I Love You

EJ screaming, "Love you! Love you! Love you!"

Elephants!

"Elephants! Look elephants!" 

I can't figure out that last word.

San Diego Zoo

We got a San Diego Zoo pass for Christmas (Thanks, Mom and Dad!) and we finally made our first visit back in January. We originally tried to go the week after Christmas, but it was so insanely busy that we couldn't find any parking within a mile of the zoo. There were a million other cars driving around looking for spots with us, so we gave up and went to Coronado instead. 

We came back a few weeks later, it was much less busy, and we had a great time!

The boys loved this climbing tree near the koalas. 

(Hi, Uncle Chris! The koalas made us think of you!)

EJ loved the elephants! They and the giraffes were his favorite animals this time.

The best way to see the zoo!

EJ saw an elephant getting its foot washed, which was fun for him because he is obsessed with having his feet washed. Whenever we clean EJ up after he eats, we need to wipe his hands, face, AND feet. Even if he's wearing socks or shoes, he still asks to have his feet wiped. It's a little strange, but he never has stinky feet!
