We love the Jeep

May 28th, 2008 by melissa

We played at home this morning for a while. I think I read a zillion books. They just love their books. We called to say hi to grandma/pa. The kids were so silly, pretending to go to sleep. They were cracking me up while on the phone. Then we headed to the Santa Ana Zoo. We met a bunch of people there (Becky’s play group). I don’t really know many of the mom’s but Paula was there. We had a great time. The kids immediately wanted to go over to the jeep and play on it. They love pretending to drive and shift. They were really good about waiting their turns too. We then went over to the farm area. We saw a bunny that weighs 20 something pounds, it was huge. The kids were pointing at it and smiling. As many times we have been to the zoo we have never seen the bunny. We saw all the chickens, roosters, turkeys, etc. Then we fed the goats. Nicole didn’t want to feed them but Justin did. But most of the kid’s attention was over to the water area. Then we went on the train and over to the monkeys. There was a baby monkey that was so cute. Anyway we had a great morning. Nicole was the hungriest little girl at the zoo. Finally at 11:15 I started feeding the kiddos lunch. Nicole is getting very upset these days if she does something wrong and you get mad at her. I guess that is a good thing as she is learning, but it is hard. The kiddos did take a nap today. When they got up, I heard them saying may I get out of bed. I said yes come on downstairs. I looked at them at the top of the stairs and they just had silly grins on their faces, happy to get out themselves. After nap we headed to the gym. We made it for a little of the open gym. I jumped with them on the trampoline, they were laughing so loud. Then I did puppets with them and they were all smiles. They were loving making baskets. Then class started. Nicole got to declare circle time. They just love circle time. We played at the gym. They did the monkey bars and stilts. They had so much fun at the gym; it is so cute to watch them. They love getting in this tube and having me roll them around. After gym, like always we looked for trains-no trains today. When we got home the kiddos sat on the family room floor and we did circle time again and again. Sang if you are happy and you know it…..After dinner, we play outside and then bath. We put the kiddos to bed a little late since they did take naps.
