Day at the Zoo

At the Zoo entrance. It was windy!

My brother feeding the Giraffe. We tried to get Matty to hold the cup, but he didn't want to. But he did get really close to it though.

Jojo is trying to get Uncle's glasses, and Matty makes funny faces.

We all had a day at the zoo with Gramma and my brother on Wednesday. It was a great day, though I didn't expect it to be so windy that morning. Ooopsy! Thankfully, I had a big beach towel in the car and it served to be the perfect blanket between Katie and Jojo.

The day went great, but Matty didn't nap. There was a major melt down late that afternoon, which I would rather not discuss in hopes that it would eventually be erased from my memory.

Their Ears are Pierced!

The girls' ears were pierced this Tuesday at the pediatrician's. I was a little apprehensive about the appointment because I don't know how painful it would be for them (my ears were pierced as baby). But it didn't turn out half as bad as I thought it would. Thankfully my mom was in town to help out when the crying began.

Katie got the solid ball stud earring.

Jojo got the diamond earring.

I didn't want the girls to have the same earrings. This is a good way for relatives to know which is which!
