A Pony Tale


MawMaw helped Emma toss some coins into the fountain for good luck. 
I took the girls on the carousel but Emma was a bit of a party pooper and fussed for half of the ride and then fussed again when it was time to get off. Sigh... Two year olds!
Today MawMaw took Emma to Build a Bear to make a new animal. She helped choose it and pick the heart to put inside. She chose a purple unicorn. She hasn't named it yet so until we get home and Papa helps her choose one it's name is Pony.  








Germ and I took a ride in Pop's trailer last night. It was a great time but Emma was scared to death of the tractor and wouldn't get in to sit with me. 
We dropped in last night to say hello to great grandma. 


Emma liked walking laps around the fountain.

Wildness


It looks a lot like my little angel is picking the nose of the cement angel, doesn't it? Emma has been wearing her new slippers everywhere.  I think she likes how soft they are. And let's face it- who doesn't like pink polka dots?
Xander was reading to Emma tonight. What a nice cousin!
Emma was having fun petting Daisey tonight. She was quite wild this evening. She woke up at 5:30, took a mere 20 minute nap in the car on the way home from the zoo, and thankfully went down in a flash for bedtime. But this evening showed the fruits of what happens without a nap. Wildness. 

Zoo Day

Today we met Abby and Grayson at the zoo. Luckily I only felt woozy today and wasn't actually ill. The weather was perfect!
Bill the lion was pacing right in front of the glass for us. It was magnificent to see him up close. 
Emma loved the drums!
We were able to watch the sea lions get fed. They were so well trained and talented!
This was Emma playing on the train and bellowing "WHYOOO WHYOOO!!" Not sure what whyooo means, but she was pretty thrilled about it. 
She had a blast brushing the goats. 
I brought bread crust to feed the ducks. Emma mostly nibbled on it herself. :)
