Zoey Pics

Aw...glad I got a picture or I'd never believe it. They're sharing!

Remember being little like this and actually liking to lay on the grass?

Momma was teaching her how to make silly faces in the mirror. I'm sure I'll regret it soon.

Two little ladies out to tea...or rather ice cream. Ever is Zoey's favorite girl friend.

Kisses for Dadda on top of StageCoach Bluff...family hike.

A quick pose with me and Milo on top of StageCoach Bluff. And we're potty trained now...doing really well. She HAD to use the potty on the hike and we didn't have one so we used this rock. She insisted that I take a picture of it post pit-stop.

Milo Pics

Riding "horsies" with Zoey at the crack of dark while I make oatmeal.

Vince was gone or he'd have never been allowed to get this messy. He had a blast...I had a lot to clean up.

With Grandpa at El Parque De Lopez.

First pony ride was great...not so great the last two times I've tried.

Love Run

Just a warm up 5K before the Tri. :-)

Me...looking like I mean business.

Heres' most of the group.

Photoshoot

Just playing

This is the first time I tried to let him paint...as you can see he's ready to go swimming so cleanup (I thought) would be easy. He ate the paint, put it in his hair, sat in it, walked on it...the only paint that went on paper was what I put there. Oh well, I seem to recall Zoey eating a lot of paint, crayons, paper and whatever.

Mom took this picture because I just wiped out and hit my head on the cement...see the bruise on my forehead already?

Righty-tighty, lefty-loosey! And she does know a Phillips from a Flat-head screwdriver.

First REAL Haircuts

I was surprised that Zoey was OK with this but she sat in that chair like a seasoned salon goer.

Milo on the other hand...

Not liking it so much!

Milo's First Birthday

The day before his birthday he was chasing Zoey around the living room and (of course) he fell into the beveled edge of the glass coffee table. Little bit of skin glue works wonders and thank goodness for after hours pediatrics.

Just hanging out waiting for cake and presents.

Theses are the presents that Zoey helped wrap and unwrap.

Happy Birthday Song and please excuse my singing!

And Disney Land

This was Zoey's 2nd time to DisneyLand and she got way more out of it but it was SO crowded (last day before Spring Break ended) that we left kinda early. She cried a lot...because she just couldn't get used to the idea of leaving something that was already fun in search of something else that may or may not be just as fun or better. Milo was kinda frustrated but he'll do better next time.

I wish I could have seen the look on her face when she saw the life sized Tow-Mater and Lightening McQueen!

The first thing she did was give him a kiss.

And we paid homage to her idol's

This was Milo's first Carousel ride...he liked it but wasn't quite the fan that Zoey is. Zoey also rode the Matterhorn which is a pretty big roller coaster for a 3 year old...all was fine until the teenagers in back of us started screeching.

Minnie Mouse...so exciting! I didn't even know she knew Minnie?

Getting off this ride involved a LOT of crying.

Busy Month...A Day with Thomas the Train

It was a very twisty-turny ride through the canyon to Fillmore. Poor Olliver (Julia's youngest) lost his breakfast on the way there...

This is Zoey clapping upon first sighting of Thomas coming into Fillmore Station. Yay Thomas...who is the marketing genius behind all those toys? And why are they so darn expensive?
