The kids and I have gotten together a few times with our friends, the Vans, while the daddies have been at work, and lately our outings have seemed to involved animals.
One day we went to the zoo. The only picture we could get of these two together was by this door, and only because Heather bribed the kids with a "treasure" she hid in the box they were sitting on. Of course my camera batteries died, so I had to put new ones in and we let them have the treat before I was ready to take another one. This picture was the best I could get. We had fun at the zoo that day, despite the heat and a bee trying to make friends with Heather. We got a great workout pushing double strollers up steep hills, and the kids had fun pretending they were the animal rescuers Diego and his sister Alicia. Baylee still pulls out her map to tell us where to go in the car.

We rode some cool tricycle things. They were fun, but kind of hard with two kids on my lap. They also aren't meant for three year olds to ride by themselves. They were a nice little workout too!
We rode a cute little train around the farm! We also went back and saw some animals that we had seen on the train ride.
Baylee "milked" a "cow".
We got lost in a corn maze. And I really mean lost. Three moms and 7 little kids stuck in a corn maze not made for strollers, in the heat, made for an interesting experience. We eventually cut through a little hole in the corn maze. We had to get out somehow! Next we did a little bounce area before my allergies couldn't handle it anymore.
Baylee wanted a picture with the little pumpkin we got, and the bigger pumpkins we left behind.

This week we met up with Heather and her boys at the park:
The kids really liked feeding the ducks, and the ducks liked being fed. Bread doesn't last two long with two kids that keep throwing huge chunks of bread though. We walked around, then had lunch by the water where we had a lot of fun watching tons of turtles sunbathing on the wall of the lake. We let the kids play for a little while, then treated them to ice cream before we called it a day.

We are also excited that it's starting to cool down enough to play outside!
