Last week on Presdient's Day, we took a trip to the Akron Zoo with our friends, Jen and Ava. It was a beautiful day and we were all so happy to be outside.

For something different we got some fish to feed the penguins. Morgan really enjoyed that but the girls had a hard time with the rubber glove.

The lemurs have the cutest furry hands.
I love the rope bridge pictures.
Smiles all around.
After lunch, we saw a few more animals and played on a little playground. This has been the weirdest winter, basically it has been one long spring, but we'll take some more days like this gladly.
Pepper, Hazel and I go mall walking every Tuesday and Thursday mornings. The other day I noticed that my little Pepper was dressed all in pink, with a pink donut, pink strawberry smoothie and pink flower in her hair. That's my girly-girl.
As we were leaving the mall, I noticed that Pepper looked like a 60s snow bunny with her puffy pink coat, leggings and boots.
Our Akron Ward had a chili cook off last Friday. I entered the pie contest with a Maple Walnut Raisin pie. It also had oatmeal in it. IIt was kind of a weird concept but it was really tasty. Kind of like a raisin crisp in a pie crust. I won the People's Choice Award. I was pretty excited, yay for me:)
On Saturday afternoon, Krista and I took, Pepper and Sophie out for an ice cream date. Both girls started potty training at the same time and they are both doing great.
Of course, Pepper had her pink ice cream.
Our big girls! Gotta love Pepper's jeggings, teehee.
After the ice cream date, we met up with Cody and Morgan for dinner at Steak and Shake. I was a little full from ice cream but surprisingly we managed to eat all our food.
I took Hazel in for her 4 mos check up last week. She weighed in at 12 lbs 12 ozs and was . This put her in the 25% for weight and 75% for height. I couldn't believe how little she was. I thought she seemed like a little baby so I guess I was right. The doctor said that it wouldn't hurt to give her some more calories so on Sunday we started feeding her rice cereal. She's still not too sure about it but she's getting better.
