Jack and Kaden Feeding the fish...


Yesterday we had a little visitor over for the day. His name is Jack and he is the sweetest little boy. His mom is in the middle of finishing up a major project for her Master's program and needed a day to get some work done and so we decided that we needed a playday with Jack. Paige was kind enough to do that for me when I was studying for the ACE exam and I know how much it can help to have the gift of TIME! Anyway, Jack was on his way over when we got a call to come and hang at the zoo with the Moore's, Neill's and Simon's. Ther was no way we could pass up that kind of fun so we loaded up and headed to the zoo. The kids had a great time and it was fun being with everyone and seeing all the cool stuff at the zoo. Abbie's favorite part was trying to feed leaves to the giraffe's. Hilarious! The kids were all so good while we were at the zoo. The first of the funny moments started at the fish pond where we were feeding the fish. Becky had quarters for the little one's to share and get some food for the fish. She gave a quarter to Jack and told him it was for feeding the fish. Jack promptly obeyed and threw the quarter to the fish! How awesome is that!! The day really was great...lots of paying attention and great obedience (who could ask for more???). Abbie at some point, must have overheard Kaden calling himself Super Kaden and she has taken that to be his new name. Everytime we have seen him since, he's been SuperKaden! Which I think is Super cool. One of the funniest parts of the day was when the kids chased a Peacock they found in the covered picnic area. The poor thing was totally harrassed by the children and instantly got a good case of the runs as a result of the chasing. It was so funny all the mom's telling the kids not to step in the poop while the kids were so intent on getting close to the peacock. Ah...the memories of childhood...
...good friends, cool animals and poo.
