Boo at the Zoo

We have had a great weekend so far, and we still have Sunday left! We slept in until 6:30, which is a real treat for us lately given Juneau's sleeping issues, and then we played around the house all morning. After morning nap we headed out to get some lunch, and I pulled this outfit out of the closet for Juneau. I didn't really think anything of it until I looked at Juneau when she was dressed and she suddenly looked like she could head out to kindergarten! What happened to our baby!
Below you will see Juneau showing off her crazy personality. She thought she looked so cute and was dancing all over the place while i was trying to get her to hold still for a picture! I love this girl!

And speaking of growing up, look who wore pigtails today! Her pigtails were about the diameter of a sewing needle, but they were still so cute. 2 little grandma's were eating next to us at Chipotle, and they were gushing all over Nova, and how cute her little pigtails were. :)

So, we headed home and decided to get ready for Boo at the Zoo!. This busy mama decided it was reasonable to bust out last year's costumes since they were such little babies last year, and surely won't remember a repeat appearance. Plus i LOVE them in these bright blue wigs. I thought they might be able to wear last years onesies, but believe it or night 3-6 months is not really a workable size for Nova. It did fit, but it had that "poured in" look that no girl really wants to go for, so i made them new shirts that actually fit.

They were such great sports about their wigs (especially with a little bribing in the candy department). Juneau has a new favorite candy, which she is holding out for your viewing pleasure - Smarties!

A little hug for sissy

Nova had decided that she wasn't really interested in taking an afternoon nap, so by the time we arrived at the zoo at 5:45 she was wiped out. she slept in the wagon for a little while while we waited to get our tickets.

One of the girls favorite parts was looking at all the other kids costumes. They thought Elmo was dressed up just for them, and Juneau immediately wantaed to go over and talk to Elmo. Nova loved the little boy dressed as Pooh.

and Cris loved Darth Vader and the Storm troopers...

The girls costumes were a HUGE hit, and everyone went crazy about them, as you can see from one of the candy passer-outers

Nova just finished her 3rd "pop-pop" of the evening, and Juneau was working on her third one in this picture

Halloween 2009!

Hopefully next year i will come up with a new costume for Halloween!

On tomorrow's agenda - church, the pumpkin patch, Cici's pizza and Costco!
