Madeline's New Tent

This afternoon we ventured outside to do a little yard work and Madeline got to try out her new tent! We just love this mini version of a grown up tent :-) It's perfect for keeping Madeline out of the sun. Plus it's a great travel bed - so easy to take with us when we have to spend the night away from home!

Dad got his car running today too! Both Dad and Madeline were happy about that :-)

Going to the Zoo!

Madeline's favorite book is called "Madeline Loves Animals". This morning Aunt Alyssa read it to her. Then we all went to the zoo to see the animals up close! We saw a komodo dragon, a big furry ape and something called a Duiker! Our favorite was the momma ape carrying her baby on her back! After a couple hours of animal watching Madeline was completely exhausted - we'll have to come back later to see all of the other animals we missed :-)
