Today we visited the DC National Zoo with Kim Terry's family:) We had a really good time and got to see lots of really cool animals. Even though the weather wasn't what we hoped- we made the best of it. The animals that were our favorites were the Tigers, Pandas, Cheetahs, and Zebras. We got to see lots of other animals to include, shrimp, crayfish, starfish, octopus, butterflies, kimono dragon, wolf, ponies, elephants, prairie dogs, monkeys, apes and more. We tried to take as many pictures as we could- enjoy:)

Living the Dream

Yes it is one of those days that mommy is off work and gets to hang with Brandon ALL DAY..... which now follows the comment from daddy..... "Must be nice..... living the dream." And I always respond with "Yes Josh, living this dream is nice- however my dream is doing this EVERYDAY not just once a week (of course I'm not including the weekends). I mean isn't everybody's dream staying home with their kids..... so let's keep our fingers crossed for the next Mega Millions!

Brandon and mommy had a great but eventful day! Consisted of playing at the gym while mommy worked out, mommy blow drying her hair and knocking over nail polish which then exploded EVERYWHERE, Brandon getting his 2nd "big boy" hair cut, Brandon then getting his first "boo boo" on his knee after falling on the cement, Playing with Drake & Kai Baptiste, Had a blast with Drake, Played outside, went for a run with mommy and nana, then hung out with daddy and mommy watching march madness! This may be crazy but I would love this dream job everyday!

Can you keep up with me?

I was on my way to work this morning and I realized that I haven't updated Brandon's blog lately. Mainly because Josh and I have been working hard on our basement project (which I'll post photos later). It has taken a lot of our time but it's almost complete..... Now that I've given my excuse- the update.

Brandon is now 17 months old and is busier then ever. He now loves reading books, he will bring a pile of books and want you to read them all. Yes over and over, I might a few memorized by now. He especially loves the Dr. Suess ABC book.  The train table is also a favorite and he will want you to sit with him and play. As soon as we turn our back for a second his is running after you with a piece saying mama or dada "choo choo". Even though he will play by himself, he sure does like company. 





When he goes out for a run he loves watching the buses, dogs and geese. He will actually get upset if he can't sit and watch the geese. Outside is his favorite place to be and we love that!
