Birds of a Feather...

Yesterday we braved the crazy wind and headed to our favorite Oklahoma City attraction--the zoo. They recently opened up a Children's Zoo area there and we really enjoyed all the new exhibits. They have a cool area for lorakeets that you can walk into and hold the birds. Saylor thought it was awesome but the little birds just wouldn't sit on her arm long enough.

The lorakeets were very fond of Mas, though!

So much that one of them decided to leave a little present on his shoulder! HA!

Doesn't she look big in this picture?

These boots were made for walkin'....

This is what a 2 year old who tee-teed in the potty SIX times today looks like....and I think it is just about the most adorable thing ever. She's totally rockin' those Elmo big girl panties and rain boots!

Also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my fabulous Mom today! We love you and appreciate you so much! Big hugs from all of us in Oklahoma!

My birthday weekend

My mom is awesome, I'll just put that out there!

She came on Thursday night to stay for the weekend. On Friday we all took the girls to a Children's Natural History Museum. It was fun, although Saylor was very stuck to my leg for some reason.

For my birthday, she gave Mas and I a night at a Bed and Breakfast. First, we had a quiet, intimate meal at The Melting Pot. YUM! I stuffed myself to the brim--so much so that I had to hold my purse in front of me when we left because I was looking about 5 months pregnant with FOOD! It was well worth it though!

Then we headed out the Whispering Pines B&B a little outside of Norman. What a wonderful RELAXING little getaway! We got to spend some quality time together, got to sleep in, got served breakfast right to our little cottage, and then got to go BACK to bed for a little while after breakfast! How great is that! This is the very first night we have ever both stayed away from Saylor. Mom, we are SO, SO, SO thankful for you--thank you for watching our little monster and giving us some quiet time away! We had such a great time.

Then Saturday night, Kellen and Mas grilled kabobs for us all! We had a great night of fun, family, and laughing.

My mom left this morning and now its back to reality, but I am so grateful for my great birthday weekend with my family, especially my husband.....lots of yummy food....and a mom that knows exactly what I need! Love you all, thanks for making my birthday special!
