Spring Break '09

I haven't been very good about blogging lately, but that's because we were on SPRING BREAK! We had intended to have a restful week, but fun got in the way! :) We began the weekend by playing in a friend's wedding, then we journeyed up to Northern Indiana to visit Alicia's parents. Parker had way too much fun staying up late with her Grandma! (So much for getting her on a better schedule!) We came back Tuesday afternoon and visited the Trader's Point Creamery. We enjoyed a great lunch and Parker had fun people watching. Wednesday, we got up and headed to the zoo.
Parker anxiously waits for the fun to begin! P watches "her" dolphins in the Dolphin Dome. (Lately, Parker has taken to shrieking very high and loud - much like dolphins. We think that she is calling the dolphins and forming and army to overtake the world!)
Parker liked the ostriches!
After fun adventures in cleaning the house and doing laundry on Thursday and Friday, we visited the Children's Museum Saturday morning.
Parker stares intently at herself in the mirror in the "Babyscape" section of the museum.
Although, you can't really tell from this picture, Parker LOVED the carousel. She was very tired, so she was a little cranky until the music started, but as soon as we started going, her mood changed! She liked it so much that she rode twice - once with each of her moms.
Now, we are back at school. :( However, there are only 38 more school days until summer and, hopefully, the time will go by quickly since we are so busy (which is another post for another day - for now, let's suffice it to say that we will be eating dinner in room 104 until May 3rd. Leftovers are yummy!)
OH - and we had Parker's 6 month portraits taken. If you haven't found these on facebook, you need to check them out at www.blog.micahbellphotography.com Seriously, he made my kid look like a model! :)

Loving the dolphin pic! We are also taking Brett to the zoo next Tuesday for his 1st birthday. I can't wait!

The zoo was awesome. I'm a little (okay a lot) jealous because my sister-in-law is taking her again today with the other girls she babysits for. I'm sad that I can't be there!

Glad you had a great break! Loved your pics and the ones by Micah. Parker is gorgeous as always and the one of you and Al is totally adorable!
