Toddler Quotes

Sometimes I just can't get over the things she says...


While I was cutting up an avocado:

"Mommy making guacamole!"


While swimming with Daddy at the beach:

"Daddy has hair on boobs!"


Listening to music in the car:

"I love this song!"


With a new bow in her hair:

"I feel pretty!"

The Rest of Our Week in NH

Gram bought MiniM.E. an awesome kiddie pool with a slide!!  (We went in the big pool too, but it was COLD and didn't last long...)

eating snacks

more snacks

ooo! what's that?

seriously? more pictures?

We went to the Monkey Around Playground (which my parents, sister and I helped build years ago, but we never really used because we were too old):

We stopped at the mall and "rode" in the mechanical cars:

And went to Krazy Kids, and indoor playground:

We got to see C. & H. for some swimming, swinging and a playground:

too cute!

And of course, we had fun in the bath:

MiniM.E. and I had a great week.... so great, we're going back next week!

York, Maine

Last Tuesday while we were visiting my mom in NH we took a day trip to York, Maine.

It was a trying car ride as an accident detour added an extra 45 minutes to our trip, but once we were there, MiniM.E. had a blast.

We started out at York Animal Kingdom, which is a really cute zoo.  (It's also an amusement park but fortunately since it was off season and a weekday it wasn't open so no distraction there!)

We did get distracted by the camel at the entrance.  So distracted, in fact, that we had to shell out $10 to take a camel ride.  It was so worth it.  MiniM.E. is still talking about riding the camel.

doesn't s/he look fuzzy?

We fed the goats.  And hoped to see a pregnant goat have a kid... but it didn't happen.  There were a bazillion baby goats though- they were really cute.

In the petting zoo:

In the deer petting zoo:

Watching the fennec foxes and the lions:

Then, even though it was already past MiniM.E.'s nap time and because we promised her on the way, we went to the beach.  (A plus for us, we got salt water taffy!)  It was too windy and cold for swimming, but we got our toes wet.

We wore her out!
