Pictures, part 1

Once again, I'm behind on posting pictures.  My little 5 month old boss rarely sleeps, thus not giving me much time to blog! 

We always love seeing the chick-fil-a cow!!

My best friends from Baylor!  Love that we still get together as often as we can!

 Cartoon fun with a new photo app called Super Photo

 I sometimes find selfies on my phone!

In the Pritchard family, we learn the game of basketball at an early age!

Celebrating NYE!

Some of our favorite people--the Ostermann's. We love living close to them and getting together often!

 More photo app fun.  This reminds me of The Polar Express

Sweet little boy with big brown eyes

 Sometimes he likes to scrunch up his nose. It's cute!

 Already in control of the TV remote!

 I love watching him sleep (partly because it doesn't last long!)

 First time in a swing!!!

 Lunch with my favorite kindergartner!!

 And my favorite 2nd grader!

 Drew gets to join in on the lunchtime fun as well!

 This is what my early mornings look like.  The big boys can't wait to see baby Drew in the morning, so we all pile into bed together!!

 Mimi has the secret touch!

 Building a gingerbread house (a month after Christmas!)

Cutie patootie!

 Mimi gave him a stuffed animal and he immediately started hugging it!

 Hanging out in the jumperoo!

 Ahhh!! 

Second round of pics (hopefully) to be posted soon!

Because Some Days...

...the dirty laundry, the dishes in the sink and the unmade beds can just wait.  THIS! This is what makes my heart go pitter pat.  And I won't give up these precious moments for anything!

Zoo Lights

Before the kids went back to school after Christmas break, Mimi and I took the boys to the Houston Zoo.  It was a beautiful day and because all the other school districts had already started, the zoo was fairly empty.  And on top of that, it was FREE admission.  A win-win all the way around!

We started off with a train ride around the park

We stopped to see the elephants and one turned and went #2 right in front of us. Of course the boys thought that was hilarious and gross!

Getting ready to see the reptile house

This was a large albino crocodile and even though he was behind a glass wall, the boys didn't want to get too close!

Cheerleaders?!?

Yep that's a king cobra

Connor, watch out!!!

Some apes at the zoo

Feeding the giraffes! This was definitely a favorite thing we did!

Even Drew got to see the giraffes

Uncle Jason and I have a picture in front of this lion water fountain about 30+ years ago!

Reid loves JJ Watt!

Checking out the apes close up

Petting zoo

We stayed to see zoo lights at night.  It was very impressive!!!

Enjoying hot cocoa

His chocolate mustache!

Until I took the picture and showed him, he didn't realize it was all over his face!  I think that means he enjoyed it!!

While on the trail of lights we saw a talking zebra.  It was funny.  Reid wasn't quite sure...

And to all a good night...
