Oh Blog how I have missed you!

Well guess I should change the title of the blog!  HAHA!  Because daily post are NOT happening right now!  YIKES! 

This weekend, we headed over to the zoo!  Christian was so bummed he missed our first trip to the new exhibit and wanted to check it out!  So we loaded up and had a fun morning together!  We just love our new zoo!  A little farther than the last zoo we were members of but really cute!   Honestly the miles in terms of distance is probably pretty close to the same but....oh these Tucson roads!  NO Freeways or highways to take you anywhere :)  It is owned by the same owners as Phoenix Zoo which is cool because membership has reciprocity to that zoo and zoos all over the country. 

Here are some pics of us at the elephants!

The mommy had just finished nursing the babies so they were pretty far away.

This guy came over though for a show!

Evan and I had a deep discussion about how one day we would really like to ride an elephant!

Great view from up here!

My happy boy!

Seeing how he weighs in compared to a 3 year old elephant!  3 year old elephant...2,000 pounds.

Checking out the lizards!  And since we have seen the lizards (bearded dragon) and snakes (ball python) that mommy and daddy used to have Evan can't stop talking about reptiles!  "Did you touch it mommy"  "Could you hold it?"  "Did it bite?"  "What did you feed it?"  Yesterday, he went to my doc appointment with a giant stuffed snake around his neck!  We got LOTS of laughs! 

Splash pad fun!  We came prepared this time!

And then Sunday morning...Daddy came home from the store with a little surprise....

They were thrilled!

Of course he needed his goggles!

oooooo a slide!

And then Ainsley had to have goggles too!

So much fun in our little pool!  They have since been in almost everyday!  Oh how I am going to miss our pool this summer!

This morning we headed with the moms group to Pop in Playtime at Pump It Up!  It was so much fun!  Evan had a BLAST!  Ainsley was a little more reserved but warmed up and we did the big slide together quite a few times (yeah, not sure how much longer I will be able to do that!)

Obstacle course!

SLIDE FUN!

And somebody was pretty pooped when he got home, she laid down right by the front door!

Pregnancy update:  almost 14 weeks and my sick feeling is pretty much gone!  WOOHOO!  Indegestion and heartburn still ever so present!  haha!  Had an appointment yesterday and everything looks great.  Baby is already out of my pelvis (3 babies in 4 years) and heartbeat is really strong.  My BIG BIG BIG BIG BIG craving is ICECREAM sandwiches!  I just can't get enough!  It's really bad.  Have never craved this before so guess what they say is true...every pregnancy is different!  We find out the gender (Boy? Girl? BOY! GIRL! ?????) on June 8th and I am so excited!  But I do have to say...this is such a different feeling the 3rd time around when it comes to finding out.  Having one of each and this being our last baby!  I feel like its going to be a surprise in a way!  I don't know what I am trying to say...but this time...the last time...just feels so weird!

Happy Mother's Day all my mommy family and friends AND to the BEST mommies I know...Mims and Mimi!!!!!  True inspirations to me!  I LOVE YOU BOTH SO MUCH!!!!
