Zoo Date with Yaya {& ramblings}

Lions, Tigers and ... Monkey's, Oh My! Seeing that our Zoo no longer has a Bear we're substituting with Monkey's. 

 

This past weekend Billy and I had an appointment which then lead to a dinner/shopping date so Lilly Rose and Yaya had a date as well. They visited the Jacksonville Zoo to see all the animals. Yaya said that Lilly Rose pointed to all the animals, learned what giraffe's do with their tongue (very funny) and shopped for a couple treasures to take home. Sounds like a great time to me! Unfortunately for us, my mom is the world's worst at picture taking. Leave it to her to take a picture, it will never happen. Yaya's theory on picture taking is that the memories are so much better in your mind and pictures can be a bit disappointing. While I see her point, I strongly disagree. So, I was sure to grab at least one picture of these two special girls.

Thanks for making it such a fun afternoon for our girl!

 

In other news the time change has not affected our schedule and I'm so very thankful for that! I was sure I'd have to work days to get her back to a 7-7:30pm bedtime but it's been seamless. As of right now, LR is sleeping soundly in her crib taking a nice long nap. We're making progress, people!! ;)

 

 And we also have a little runner... Lilly just started a little jog/run/walksuperfast this week. It's so cute to see but it keeps me on my toes!! She can make it to another room in seconds. Loving this stage she's in so much (minus the sudden tantrums but that's for another post, I'll leave this one on a positive note).  :)
