Family Day at the Zoo

Our Brevard County Zoo is just so awesome. I love it there. The kids love it because it is just the perfect size that you can see everything in an hour or so and then spend another hour or so in the splash area and call it a day. So nice. =) We decided a family visit was in order since Paul hadn't been yet and since Matteo always seemed to fall asleep by the time we made it to the splash area. It was a great way to spend a Saturday morning during 4th of July weekend!

Our family.

With Daddy.

Matteo is finally interested in the animals. Except he calls them all "dog" or "duck." His favorites.

He was Daddy's buddy that day.

Finally having fun in the splash pool!

He was loving the water that day. It was hot, but cloudy so it wasn't too bad.

The battle for Matteo to wear a hat outdoors continues.

"Matteo, the hat stays on your head. Please don't take it off." (note the scowl...)

Okay, fine, but only if I can wear it like this so it doesn't interfere with my line of sight. Or block the sun....ugh!

And you can see who won that battle....
(but hey, everyone had a good day and that's what matter's in the end, right?!)

Last Week...

So, Matteo is quite the little climber. He loves to climb onto things, especially chairs and tables. I think we are in trouble. Sebastian never did such things...

Made some play-doh the other day and since it was homemade and knew it wouldn't hurt Matteo if he ate it, I let him play too. He loved it and, of course, ate it.

Mouth full of play-doh and making a dog - his favorite animal. He can say "dog" and "duck" although they both sound pretty much the same. But it's still cute. =)

A couple weekends ago, we went and visited our college friend Jose and his wife Natalia, and their two adorable girls. It was such a nice time since we are all in the same place in life right now - and so effortless to just hang out! It was a really great time. We are raising awesome Gator kiddos!
Sebastian and Matteo dancing for Baby David and Arlene. They were both thrilled to have David visiting (specifically Sebastian). Matteo took the chance to hone his shrieking skills during their visit...I think someone was feeling like he needed to be the center of attention!

A happy milk face. And this is why I love nursing my toddler.

Last week, we decided to go to our regular playground to go play. Well, it turns out that they decided it was warm enough to open the splash pad portion! Well, I didn't know in advance, but really, how can you deny the kids a chance to go splash around?! Right?! So in we ALL went - with clothes and all. We had a great time.

Soaked and happy!

I wonder if the other people thought I was crazy....

The boys rode home naked!!!! But had a blast.....Those are the moments that I am so blessed to have staying home with my boys...
