Zoolights

Every year we loved going to Zoolights. I didn't know if it was going to happen this year because we really wanted to avoid any crowds, but then I saw that they offered their member nights again, and even though we are not members anymore, I knew my friend Tiffany was, so I asked her if she wanted to go.
I just adore these two little girls. They are so sweet and they always love on Finn. I don't think he wanted to hold hands with them, but he let them.


It turned out that it was the absolute perfect night to go. It was the beginning of November, so it was still warm at night and the zoo was almost empty, it was like we had the entire place to ourselves. 


You usually don't see a lot of animals during zoo lights, but we were lucky enough to see a very noisy lion and Finn was absolutely fascinated.


See what I mean...it was empty! Tiffany and I couldn't believe our luck and kept talking about how perfect this night was.




We don't have a lot of playdates with them, but surprisingly they all got along really great. Fox is at the stage where he'd rather play with boys than girls, but when there's no other choice, he plays with them very well. 

Finn loved all things Christmas this year, so I knew he would be a big fan of all the lights.

He talked about this spiderweb for weeks.





I'm so happy we got to experience this with our friends this year. It truly was a perfect night.

July iPhone dump

The rest of our July in pictures! Movie date with the boys! I took Finn and his best friend to the Aquarium one day, while Fox was at the allergist with Katie. They both had a blast. Trying to touch the sting rays... Sweet brotherly moment at a play place. One of my patients made this for me, and it made my day. It's now hanging from the mirror in my car, as a reminder how fragile life is. This kid kills me with his watermelons. He always wants to buy them, so he can help me cut them, but then won't eat them. When I pointed this out to him, he simply replied that I could take the watermelon to my co-workers again because they love it when I do.  Fox told me he is allergic to Goodwill and puts on this big act whenever I make them go. His throat starts to be itchy and he can't breathe. We might have to get him tested again...hahaha. We visited a lot of play places this summer to stay out of the heat. This was at a library and the kids played with this lite-brite forever. Finn...

April phone dump

Some more pictures of our April. He's my bed hog, but I love sharing the bed with him and the way he comes find me in his sleep to snuggle up to me. Work Crew! Easter Preparations...it took me a solid hour to fill all the eggs. Finn chipped his permanent front tooth, and had to get it fixed. He was so brave. I tried to hold his hand to let him know I was there, and he kept giving me a thumbs up. Reading in bed with them is my favorite. We went to play mini golf, and it was an absolutely shit show. Just look at Finn in the background, he was on fire on this day. That's his "cool face". Not pictured are all the times he melted down because he wasn't "good enough". I really need to stop playing this game with him, because it happens every single time...haha.  Book Club! I wasn't a fan of the book, but it was great getting out and talking about books with other readers. He got into kinetic sand for a few weeks, and I felt like my floors were covered in s...
