We’re enjoying summer around here and keeping busy with fun trips and activities. This week Griffin, Reid, and Jenn headed to the zoo on World Giraffe Day (celebrating the longest necked animal on the longest day of the year). Finn fed the giraffe’s and they had a few hours of fun exploring the zoo. Giraffe’s are Jenn’s favorite animal (she even has a lovey on her dashboard!) and she wore a cute giraffe shirt for their adventure :).
Each year the Powell Festival seems to be up against summer storms! This year is no different and we didn’t think we were going to venture out. Even though the skies were looking iffy we decided to go for it and had a blast! It had rained so much during the week the kids activities area where they have numerous inflatables and fun things for kids was an absolute mess! Deep tire ruts in the grass from where the entertainment trucks drove in to get their activities setup. We didn’t even venture off the path back there but rather Finn had a go at the trampoline for a few minutes which he seemed to enjoy just as much. It turned out to be a beautiful night and we were glad to have gone.
Baseball games continue on Saturday morning. It’s nice to get up and have some time at our house in the morning and then head out to the ball field for some fun.
I put this picture in, even though it is blurry, as it perfectly captures Reid’s expression when he is getting tired and wants his paci. He takes his finger and puts it up to his lip and just babbles a bit, all while making his sad eyes and scrunching his forehead.
And here is a picture of Rowan from when he was 10 months old. He and Reid definitely share many similarities!
