isaac was looking around our house today and said,
"look at all that stuff on the floor. our house is always a mess. do some people keep their houses clean all the time?"
i had to just laugh especially since truman was peeing on me at the same time.
isaac always asks questions like,"what are we going to do with his house, or boy(beckam), etc." but the question on the end of this one was enough to make me put it in writing.

a friday with dad

our day at the zoo
we had to park a little ways away from the zoo because 1/2 of houston's school systems were having their field trip at the zoo day.
it made it so we were able to check out some of the really cool surrounding park area that we've never seen before.


rocks in the shoe.

sun in the eyes.

they even have their own washington monument with the pool and everything.
here begins your very long tour of the zoo. don't fall asleep in front of your computer. sorry, digital cameras what can i say. you wouldn't believe how many i didn't post.



isaac loved his map. he would get it out and we would check it and chart our way to the next destination.



isaac said these were some of his favorite. they were pretty funny cute little monkeys. the mom even had a tiny one on her back.

just taking a little break.

these 3 little monkeys were hilarious. they were picking bugs off each other. isaac thought they were funny kissing each other.



"rodents of unusually large size"



just having a little lunch. we weren't going to the zoo when we left the house this morning. we weren't exactly decided on were to go. so when isaac suggested the zoo we though sure, why not. unfortunately since it was not a planned venture we ended up eating less than wonderful, but very expensive zoo food.

i had to take this picture so years from now when i'm telling beckam how weird he is i'll have years of pictures to back me and my stories up. he is peeling his hot dog and eating the skin, ewe.




look at the lion.


this guy is our favorite, he's an okapi.

water stop





this giraffe had the coolest spots.

crawling through the tunnel surrounded by fish. sam took this picture, the flash went crazy.






on your mark - get set - go !!!


dad had to go on a field trip today to a well site so yesterday he took the day off to spend it with us. thanks dad we had an awesomely fun day.

Sometimes Isaac likes to remove a pillow case so that we can use it as his own personal "movie watching bag"

The other morning Beckam found some shades for he and Truman to sport

a post to keep me going on those long days






At first glance it might not look like it but it was a good day!!

Amazing what a bit of good motherly advice can do.

Along with the motivation it takes to not act as tired or as impatient as you might feel.

Just laugh with them and enjoy it, mingled with a healthy amount of calm time outs.

hole in the head



Sunday while running around like a wild man with Isaac. Beck had a run in with my dresser. I just don't think I or his head can take much more.
