A trip to the Pittsburgh Zoo

We Loved the polar bears!
What a pretty peacock but he didn't spread his feathers
That is Quinn petting a kangaroo!!!
Reagan loved this play area
Just chillin' on my camel
In front of the Tiger
What a big roar! He was letting us know who was king!
Taking a rest from all the roaring
Quinn loves the elephants
He had a itch that he was trying to reach
Today we decided to go to the Pitt zoo with Jeremy and Mary, we were worried about the weather, but it didn't rain. We LOVED this zoo, it puts the DC zoo to shame, it had a great layout and wonderful animals. It also had several nice play areas, an aquarium (with a huge octopus and the cutest penguins) and a great petting zoo. This wasn't just petting goats though, Quinn actually was able to pet a kangaroo, plus almost a deer.
We were there almost 5 hours but didn't even get to see everything, it was great. We ended up getting season passes since it's just over an hour away. I think we'll go a lot and can't wait to go again!
The girls and I are off to my moms tomorrow and down to NC for a funfilled weekend. We are really looking forward to some warmer weather!

Silly Girls

Since my internet is limited it has been difficult to update this but I finally have a few minutes. We are still staying the condo but we have found a house and are counting down the days until we move in it on July 1. The girls are doing great, we try to go to the park, pool or play area at the mall a few days a week to stay busy!
Quinn actually was swimming without her swimmies yesterday! She would jump in and swim to me then back to the ladder, about 6 - 7 feet. I was really proud of her but she was more proud of herself! She is signed up for Kindergarten next year, I'll stop crying about it soon, and can't wait to go. We are going to a Kindergarten prep meeting tonight.
Reagan is going well too, she still has such a temper but we are working on it!

The other pictures are from the other day when it was really nice out and the girls got to ride their outdoor toys.
Happy Easter!

Coloring Easter Eggs






This morning we colored some Easter eggs, we didn't have any vinegar though so they didn't turn out great. We are going to get some vinegar and do some more in a few days.

The girls had a great time, we had a princess kit so they thought it was fun to put glitter and stickers on the eggs.

A funny Quinn story. We were outside talking to our neighbors the other night, Quinn was talking to her friends. Then, Will, a five year old up the street came out. I think Quinn has a crush on him because she always acts different when he is around. SHe went over to talk to him andthe talked for a few minutes. He asked her if she'd been "jeeping", (we think that means driving her Barbie Jeep), she was twirling her skirt and playing with her hair the whole time. I told herit was time to go in so she walked to him and said she had to go and with puckered lips told him to give her a hug and kiss. Will is a boys boy so he screamed and took off running, so Quinn chased him screaming for him to kiss her. Lance was in the garage shielding his eyes the whole time!

I finally convinced Quinn to give it up and come in so we could have a talk about kissing people.
