Michael pigging out on people food at the Olive Garden. He loves chicken strips...and a bunch of other stuff...cheerios, bagels, peas, potatoes, watermelon, pretty much anything I give him! Here he was 8 1/2 months old and had 6 teeth. Now at just over 9 months he has 7 teeth! Crazy because McKenzie didn't get her first until 13 months!
Well, I haven't figured out how to upload the other ride videos from the Strawberry Festival yet. I feel like it would be really easy, but for some reason I haven't figured it out. They were taken with Mike's phone so that is why I'm not sure how to upload them to the blog. I'll keep trying and maybe eventually I'll get it.
The last 10 days or so have been very busy! Mike's parents flew in from Florida on the 16th. Poppa was here until the 20th, and Mom-Mom stayed until the 27th. We had a lot of fun, but the days were very busy, so I'm finally getting time to upload all the pictures now. And believe me, there are a bunch!
We were supposed to go to the Oyster Bake on the 17th for Fiesta, but it was pouring down rain! Then McKenzie got sick. She was so pathetic, throwing up, laying around on the couch and floor, and sleeping ALL day. Luckily it only lasted about 24 hours and she was feeling better.
So, on Monday the 19th, we went to the San Antonio Zoo. This was Michael and Daddy's first time at the SA zoo.
First animal...a jaguar.
Then the hippos! I love this exhibit because you can get so close to them!
Michael checking him out too!
We didn't even realize there were 2 of them here until the one started to move away!
Michael enjoyed looking in at the fish too.
McKenzie was excited to see the elephant
Then we saw the giraffe (it's a shame they only had one giraffe, and one elephant) and the rhinos (they had a bunch of them) and the cheetah.
Then we fed the Lorys! They attacked Mike when we went in.
McKenzie helping feed them.
I think this one was checking out the camera.
Mom-Mom and Daddy feeding them.
Mom-Mom has 3 of them!
This one was trying to eat Mom-Mom's shiny earrings!

Eww! Touching the milipede!
Crawling around in the children's zoo.
Hmm, this says she is 3 feet tall! I guess I'll have to measure her to see if she really grew that much!
You can barely see her look out of the bubble at the praire dogs.
Fishing at the zoo.
She caught one!
Sitting on the little bench with her baby brother.
We had a lot of fun watching this mommy and baby monkey! He was so cute!
This year I started doing a scrapbook "project" the 12 on the 12th. On the 12th of each month you do a layout using 12 pictures from that day. I have decided to try to do all of them this year digitally, since I haven't done much digital scrapbooking lately. So here are what the first 3 months looked like...
After dinner, they took a bath. Michael loves his ducky bath!
I know that wasn't 12 pictures, but I do have more, once I get a chance to do the layout I'll try to remember to upload it so you can see how it turned out! Wonder what we'll be doing May 12th??
Yesterday we went to the Poteet Strawberry Festival. It was a lot of fun. There was tons of food, carnival rides, vendors, little shows, and everything strawberry!
McKenzie wore her strawberry dress
Then Michael took a little nap
McKenzie enjoyed a strawberry cookie
and chocolate covered strawberries
Then she rode on some of the carnival rides. We weren't sure how she would like them because sometimes she's not too sure once it starts. As you can see... she liked these!
