Spring Break

We were all super excited to go to San Diego for Spring Break this year. Chris and I thought this would be a great way to spend some family time together before the baby comes. Shea LOVES anything to do with animals so we went to the San Diego Zoo and to Sea World.



Shea and Mommy




Toby the Koala Bear




After searching for about an hour and a half for the elephants this is what we were greeted with when we finally got there - NICE!!


I think Sin-Liu the panda was Shea's favorite.



The next day was our trip to Sea World. Chris thought it would "be fun" to sit in the "soak zone" so we could get a little splash. When Shamu drenched us Shea threw a fit and wanted to leave IMMEDIATELY!! Now, he tells everyone that "Shamu splashed ALL of us and it is all Daddy's fault." Of course, I helped with that last part!






Other highlights from the trip:



Great Balls of Fire: this is the actual piano that Goose plays in "Top Gun" Yes - I took my baby to a bar.





Shea the fighter pilot on the USS Midway




Boat tour around our hotel




The very cold beach


















Easter

Here are a few pictures from the many Easter Egg hunts that we went to this Easter. Our neighborhood put on one and we went to Mimi & Pop-Pop's new neighborhood for the other. Apparently the Easter Bunny is a little scarier than Santa Claus, and most importantly, did not have a large sack of presents to ahnd out!


And of course, the Easter Bunny visited our house Easter morning as well! I wish that I had taken a video to show his reaction when I told him that the Easter Bunny had come to visit our house. Notice we needed one basket for our eggs and one basket for out other goodies. Zora even had a good time hunting for eggs. She managed to find one stuffed with Hershey kisses!

Eat Your Heart Out



We spent some time outside this morning enjoying the warm weather. Those of you not in the Dallas area need to understand the wild weather around here lately. It was 80 last weekend 60's all week and then it snowed on Thursday. By Saturday we were back up into the high 60's. CRAZY!! We needed some outside time this morning to enjoy the non-snowy/rainiy day. Shea decided that he needed to have his very cool madras hat and shades because it was "too bwight." Maybe this is just mom talking but check out how cute he is! Look at that pose! I dunno - do we see Time Square billboards in this kid's future?
