First Kiss

That's right guys, I got me some sugar!!!
AWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!


Are you watching??!





BE GENTLE!!!

She might be a little bit older but she's definitely not bigger. I think Lennox might have her by about 5 lbs!

So, like I said, I was impressed with all of the kid's behavior at the zoo. What I'm NOT impressed with, however, is my appearance. I mean, seriously, if anyone out there really loves me would you PLEASE nominate me for What Not to Wear? Obviously, by these pictures (and many others), I do not know what not to wear. I have never been a fashion icon but I used to think I dressed a little bit cute. These days I wear ugly unflattering shirts and I wear them repeatedly because I don't have anything else. I wear either old too tight jeans or new too loose jeans. My hair, now that's a tragedy in itself. I haven't had any color on it in about 8 months and that is oh, so obvious PLUS it's so long all I can do with it is braid it... it's very Duggar-like in style a.k.a, it has no style. I don't wear any makeup most days but I am beginnning to come to the realization that I'm of the age that NEEDS some makeup. What to do.. what to do. I didn't see anyone filming me at the zoo (stacy and clinton) so I'm still holding on to hope that I'm just not observant enough to see them. I was going to go shopping tomorrow but, since I got a ticket this morning going 72 in what I thought was a 70, I guess I'll spend my $250 on that instead. Great!
CREEPY!!!






We won't discuss why Goga was in a hurry!

Lilly the Sea Lion

This baby goat was so cute. He thought Lennox's bib was pretty tasty.



Good thing we snapped this picture because 2 seconds later, when Melanie politely retrieved her glasses, someone had a big fat fit. The fit throwing is in full effect lately. He gets really ticked off when you take things away.



Goga has so many accessories!


These guys are my favorite. They are gorgeous & HUGE!

On Friday, before Mardi Gras, we went to the Audubon zoo with my friends from work. It was an absolutely beautiful day and all the kids were so well behaved. I don't even think anyone cried! Very impressive. ok, wait, my kid cried. Only at first though. He threw a fit over Melanie's glasses... he was just testing the waters!

I rode the elephant!













Ok, so not the real elephant... but one my size.

6 month stats

Weight: 18lbs 15.5 oz (75th %)
Height: 28 inches (90th %)
Head: ? (95th %)

Hopefully there is big brain in there.

I don't get how they determine what percentile each baby is in. I mean, I can clearly see the plot on the chart but I hear people say their 6 month old is in the 95th percentile for weight but they weigh less than Lennox OR they are in the 80th percentile for height but they are longer... is it really that subjective?
