Columbus Zoo

We took Josh to the Columbus Zoo today. It was the first time Josh really reacted to everything he saw. He could not wait to see the monkeys. He had been talking about seeing monkeys at the zoo all week. I'm not sure if the monkeys or the sting rays were his favorite.

Pool Pictures

We got Josh a pool and this weekend was the perfect time to use it. With summer weather setting in we spent several hours in the pool this weekend. Josh loves it!

Making Cookies with Mommy

The non stop rain has kept us inside this weekend so we made cookies. And of course played with cars (Josh's all time favorite)!

Updated Pictures

Here are a few updated pictures of Josh. Now that the weather has started to warm up he is constantly asking to play outside. We are outside as much as possible but when he is getting ready for bed he still loves 15 minutes of cartoons!

Spaghetti Dinner

We have been blessed with a very good eater from the very beginning but as usual Joshua prefers some foods over others. Josh has picked spaghetti as one of his favorite foods. It is always a messy meal but he loves it so much!

Blizzard of 2008

For those of you who did not have to live through it or did not hear about it on the news, the Columbus area was hit with over 20 inches of snow and blizzard conditions this weekend. By Sunday the sun came out and we got a chance to bundle up and play in the snow with Josh and Barkley. Here are several pictures we took.

Trip to New York City

Last month John and I took a much needed vacation to New York City. We left Josh at home with his grandparents and met Colin and Jaime in NYC for four days. We had a fabulous time!!! We went to the Museum of Modern Art, saw the Statue of Liberty, Ground Zero, Wall Street, Rockefeller Plaza (Matt Lauer of the Today Show), Time Square, and ate like crazy. We also went shopping in Chinatown which was a highlight for me!! We had the best cupcakes from a bakery in Greenwich Village called the Magnolia Bakery. I have been trying to get John to bring some home for me when he goes back to the city for work!! As much fun as it was, it was nice to come home to my smiling little boy!
