Wild Animal Park: FAIL or WIN?

So, last weekend I pulled myself away from all my twi-related MADNESS and got to hanging with my IRL friends as opposed to my interweb friends (who all rock…you know who you are!)

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!!

I just wanted to take this post to wish my Mom a

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!!!

Ow...ow...OUCH!!!

I can’t thank you enough for all the many things you’ve done for all of your kids! We love you, and appreciate the many sacrifices you’ve made for us. I can’t tell you how sad I am that I can’t be there with you right now to tell you this, and share in your day! Please KNOW that I would be there if I could, and that I am thinking about you!

Always there for me

Love,

Me (and Bella of course)

Lions and Tigers and Bears…Oh MY!!

Me:"Why do you like Rhinos" Bella: "cuz they *sweep in the zoo"--*sleep

So I bought a membership to the zoo, and in order to justify the cost to Andy get the

"Fun Size Edward" at the S.D. Zoo All U Can Eat Buffet! muahaha

most bang for my buck I am a frequent visitor.  Bella loves seeing all the animals, though she does have her favorites (Rhinos–Go figure) Anyway, here are a few pics taken from our recent Animal Excursions!

Umm...FEROCIOUS LIONS!! (ok, so she's napping I'm sure when she's awake she can be very scary..RAWR!)

Yes...I did carry her around all day in that thing...no I didn't get a massage afterward *was told it was GOOD FOR ME!!*

Playful Meerkats

I have never seen this Panda...NOT asleep..and yes it sleeps in the trees just like that!

"Youuuuuu... I wanna be like youuuuuu" A chat with King Louis!

Up Close and Personal with Polar Bears!

HOW RUDE!!!

Lazeee hippos!

For Carolyn! You know we couldn't forget the Elephants!!

We love th SD Zoo, if you are ever in town, you should definitely make a point of dropping by.  It is well worth the time and expense involved.

She’s Got IT!! (kind of)

O.K. Andy and I are sort of excited…Recently I’ve been working with Bella on Rhymes.  There is an episode of her FAVORITE show Ni Hao Kai Lan where the little Koala Tolee learns to rhyme, and she really likes to do that, so yesterday, we worked on Rhymes, and she pulled out this gem…ENJOY!

OK…so maybe we got a little ahead of ourselves there.  But even though it’s not an EXACT rhyme, at least we know she’s headed in the right direction, even if her steering is veering a little to the left.

Have a fun rhyme to share?

What...Competition??!!

This is a little segment I like to call:

Rules to Dress by for Toddlers

…Enjoy!

If you don’t want to be a sad girl, always remember it is very important to put your pants on one leg at a time!

Sunglasses are not only a great looking and inexpensive accessory they are necessary for healthy eyes…don’t leave home without them!                          *wearing them upside down however is optional*

A well thought out Accessory like this headband can really make your look!

Sometimes an Unexpected Found Item can prove to be quite fashionable when paired with the right outfit *bubble pack can be purchased at U-haul stores across country*

Don’t be afraid to try new combinations with old favorites…Have Fun with your wardrobe and don’t be afraid of sticking out! True Fashionistas don’t follow trends….they set them!

Here is another interesting combination I like to call this hiking Chic *pants/dirty laundry in background optional

If you have any fashion questions for Me

I will try to answer everyone!!–Bella
