lazy days

Not sure if this counts as a "lazy day" but the other day I had that "Oh my gosh my baby is going to kindergarten" moment where you realize that life as you know it won't be the same ever ever again. I mean, I've KNOWN this was coming but it was that griping, lump in your throat, moment that sort of makes you want to throw up. Not only will our days be different with a set schedule (that I didn't set) but knowing my sweet first born will be gone from here mama for hours on end. Well, lets just say that I needed a mommy/daughter(s) day. We went to gymnastics and then headed off to one of our favorite places-the zoo. It was a pretty ugly day. Lots of clouds, windy and thick feeling in the air. But it was wonderful. There was maybe 10 people in the whole place and we were able to really watch the animals without worrying about the person behind us. We didn't hurry or worry about anything else. We got to see a lot of animals being really active today which is always something the girls LOVE! Saige's favorite was the sea lions. After watching them Reese wanted to go home to take a bath to pretend to be a sea lion. Reese's favorite is the big cats. We saw a mountain lion get really close to the glass and jump at us. FUN!!!

Then we headed to Aaron's restaurant for a sweet treat. The girls KILLED this brownie. I've taught them well. The restaurant was a little slow so the girls got to visit with their daddy a lot more. They got to talk on the microphone and pretend behind the host station.

All in all we had a wonderful day. I'm soaking up these last few months of being able to come and go at free will without worrying about missing school. Life sure is about to change for all of us. Love these girls.
