Our Little Rock Lobster

It was a rainy, soggy Friday night concert, but that didn't dampen our spirits catching the B-52's concert at the Oregon Zoo. This was the first song of the show and Adeline was in motion all the way until the finale. Needless to say, she slept in until 10 a.m. the next day.

Hello California

We celebrated Andrea's birthday this year in CA.

It was fun being back in our old stomping grounds.

Bathtime Duet

In case you're wondering, it's the "Little Einstein's" theme song from their favorite morning cartoon. WARNING: This tune will get stuck in your head.

The Robot Dance

Festival of Fun

It's that time of year in Portland - The Rose City Festival. We brought the kids to ride the rides and inhale the smells of deep-fried-batter-delicacies and cotton candy. The motorcycle ride was by far Cooper's favorite. He said he was pretending to take Adeline to the hospital. Hmmm...

Adeline had a permanent grin the entire time. She particularly liked the rides that went up and down. This hot air balloon ride was her favorite.

The carousel was our first ride of the morning and this was the first time they got to ride unassisted from mom or dad. Big sis was excited but Coop had his doubts.

Not exactly sure what to expect from the rocket ship ride, Cooper's face says it all.

Preschool Graduate!

We were so proud of Miss Adeline graduating from Preschool this weekend. She was first to be called to receive her "diploma" which also included quotes from her fellow classmates about what they appreciate most about her. She was so proud and our hands hurt from clapping so hard.
