A trip to the zoo

Well, we decided to take a little trip to the Henry Vilas Zoo the other day when Josh had off. He had to work on his actual birthday (April 18th - the big 3-0!!!) so this was kind of his happy unbirthday. We went down to Madison in the morning, saw the animals, ate our little picnic lunch, then went back in for a little while longer. We left at about 2:00 and the boys both slept on the hour long ride home. It was a really fun and FREE day! (minus the gas money I guess) I love that the boys are both to the age now where I don't have to worry about packing a huge diaper bag with bottles, milk, extra clothes, etc. and Caleb is to the age where you don't have to carry him nonstop. I told my friend this and she's like, "You better hurry and get pregnant before you totally get out of baby mode!" I'm like, "No, I think baby mode will be better if it's when my two boys are like, 4 and 6 and I only have one kid in diapers!" So we'll see...





















Caleb is definitely entering terrible twos. He has this eye-piercing shriek when he wants something and I say, "No." It's turned a few heads lately (at the mall... in Target.... at the zoo....) everyone hears it and I can see them like, turn to their neighbor with this, "Whoa, glad I'm not that kid's parent!" look. And I'm all, "Yup. He's mine. All mine." :) I must say though, I think he is the strongest kid on the block. There are times that I really think he is already stronger than me. I will post a picture of him in his diaper showing off his buff bod.
