Zoo Boise

A friend had the wonderful idea of getting together and going to the zoo today! It was great! Curtis loved getting to see the animals and it was good to spend time with friends. Curtis got a bit sleepy about half way through, but he still enjoyed seeing the lions and monkeys.

"Let's get this show on the road and see some animals!"



Curtis thought the Kamodo Dragon was pretty cool.

Riding this little tiger was the highlight of his day!

This is a Mane Wolf from South America. It looked some crazy hybrid fox.


Curtis and his friends. Don't they all look thrilled! ;)

Curtis and his friend Donovan in half an egg.

The whole gang!

Spring

Life around here is much like spring. Sometimes the sun shines, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it's gloomy and sometimes it's windy. We have our good times and bad, but overall the sun is shining. :)

Curtis is growing every day. He learns new words all the time and sometimes I even understand him. His best word these days is cookie. He is always asking for cookies. Too ba
d I'm a mean old mom and won't let him have a cookie at every meal. He is also obsessed with trains and fixing things. He has enjoyed helping Travis fix his lawnmower the last few weekends. He'll pick up a wrench and pretend he's loosening bolts and whatnot. He also enjoys playing with the kids next door that range in age from 2 - 6.

Here's Curtis sporting some of my warm, fuzzy socks as leg warmers.

On a not so happy note my best friend is moving in a few weeks. Granted she is only moving 30 mins away I'm not a happy camper. I know that this is best for her and her family, but I have been separated from a best friend before and I know that it sucks. I've already shed some tears and will probably shed some more. I love her to death and am going to miss being able to drop in on her when I get bored at home.

The school year is winding down which really just means that our crazy summer is about to begin. Travis will be gone for 3 weeks in June and then we're going to McCall for a week!
