Day Three

Day three we visited the Florida Aquarium and took a boat cruise of Tampa Bay to look for dolphins. Paige loved the aquarium and kept saying fish and pointing at them. (see picture above)She liked riding on the boat too. We also went back to the beach at sunset to play and take pictures.

A busy day for Paige!

Today Paige and I went over to our friend Gina's house. Paige played with her two children, Emma and Jack. Mommy's other friend Susan came over to play with her son Jake too! We had a lot of fun and are going to try to play more often!
Jack-six months old

Before we left this is how I found Paige asleep in her crib. Okay, doesn't look so comfortable. I am not sure how she managed that one.
Had to take two....

Emma was having so much fun splashing us.

Seeing what a mess I can make....

She looks so big now!

Boxes are better than toys.....

Paige likes taking a ride in the empty diaper box. Why do we even need toys?

Memorial Day Fun at the Zoo!

Paige LOVED these. She was hamming it up so much sticking her head through the holes. I think it was one of her most favorite parts of the zoo.
This was her monkey face!

Paige's favorite part of the zoo was the petting zoo. She liked walking around and touching the animals.

This goat was asleep under the bench and Paige kept going back to this goat. She kept looking at him saying, "Hey". I think she wasn't sure why he was not looking at her. We had to walk back to it so many times.
SuperPaige! Daddy was helping her look under the bench at her favorite goat.

Paige's first ride on the carousel. She loved this too!

A nice Saturday with our girl!

The house is still for sale. We are going on eight months now. We are truly hoping it sells by the end of summer. I am only going back to work part-time for the next school year so we truly hope it sells soon. We need your prayers! It was such a beautiful day today. Seventy-five degrees and sunny. I would think a mountain view off your back deck that looked like this would sell your house faster:)

Trying to figure out how to climb in.
We planted some flowers in our pots yesterday because it was such a beautiful day to be outside. Paige was helping us!
So pretty!
Paige helping Mommy water plants. I think Paige would spend all day outside if we would let her. She got mad last night when we said it was time to go in for bath time. She wanted to stay out and play.

Trying to prove what a genius she is...

Picking up her book for a little light reading.
I can even read and walk at the same time.
Paige is already trying to tackle C.S. Lewis.
