Sunshine!

After weeks of seemingly endless rain and gloomy skies, we enjoyed a glorious weekend full of sunshine!  On Saturday, we took the littles to the Montgomery Zoo; we even decided to get a year membership, since it'll pay for itself in just 3 visits.  We brought along a picnic lunch (unlike the Birmingham Zoo, they allow you to bring food in with you, and even have a great playground with picnic tables and benches) and after we ate, Big Sister and Little Bud enjoyed some much needed play time.  We spent a few hours walking around, checking out all the cool animals (Big Sister even got to feed the giraffes!) before heading home.

On Sunday, we spent the afternoon enjoying the sunshine in our own backyard, swinging, sliding and jumping. Big Sister also went for a ride in her new jeep.

In between all of the fun, we accomplished a few projects around the house that needed our attention.

All in all, it was a great weekend!

swinging just might be this sweet little guy's favorite activity

cruising around in their comfy new stroller (great Craigslist find!)

Big Sister was having a "Mary Poppins" moment here, 
singing, "Just a Spoon Full of Sugar" while making us follow
along in a line behind her.

Fleeing the scene of her first accident!
Hit and RUN!!



We often call Little Bud "Crazy Hair".
The longer it grows, the crazier it becomes!!

    Did you get the BOB?

      After much deliberation, we decided on the Baby Jogger City Mini. We saw several people with them when we went to Disney, and they seemed so much easier to fold up, and it's definitely lighter than even the single Bob. It doesn't glide like the Bob does, but I think it fits our overall needs better. We've also found that we can use the single Bob for both kids, Little Bid sits in the seat and Big Sister sits in the foot rest space below him.
