Our time at the zoo yesterday was SO FUN!!! Gavin had such a great time seeing all the animals, and Ez was happy all day! But for me, I think best of all was the time my mom and I had together. I cannot remember a time I have laughed so hard, so many times. I felt like we laughed all day and everytime we laughed I was crying. Even now, I think back to a few situations and I start laughing. It was a day we made some great memories! Thank you, Mom! (I will try posting pictures tomorrow - for some reason I can't do it right now)

1) An amazing time with my mom yesterday

2) The generosity of my parents

3) Dinner at the Old Town Mexican Cafe in San Diego. A place my family used to go to about once a week for many years. Its so fun returning and having a great meal - even though we were all wiped out!

4) My mom coming over again this afternoon and helping me decorate my bathroom and eating dinner with us

5) The Lord giving me patience with Gavin today - he went to sleep at 9:30 last night after having no nap, and he still awoke at 6:30 today - he was a tad bit "edgy"

6) Finding a coffee place by our house that has great flavored organic coffee

7) Seeing Ez develop more and more into an older baby - he had been grabbing at EVERYTHING edible within his reach to try and eat, he was drinking out of a sippy cup today and the best is he is laughing so much at Gavin. He gets in these giggly moods and he busts up whenever Gavin even looks at him. Its so funny to watch. And I love it that he loves Gavin so much already.

8) Gavin asking the cashier at TJ Maxx today " how's your day?" The cashier was dying! He told me good job for raising such a gentleman :-)

9) The park we discovered only a mile from our house

10) Blockbuster calling me and telling me I have a movie due - I never remember to return them and this way, as soon as they call me, I know I need to return it within a day or 2.
