Spring Break Day 2- Trip to the Zoo

The zebras, giraffes and elephant habitat was the coolest!

Driving the safari jeep

On Tuesday we went to the Dallas Zoo. Karson had not been to the zoo since he was 5 months old, and that was the Fort Worth Zoo. A small confession it was also my first trip to the Dallas zoo. We rode the DART train down to the zoo. He loved watching everything pass by. At the zoo he loved watching the animals. I don't think he has one favorite animal, but instead he loved them all! He started off in his stroller but it was hard for him to see some of the animals, so we let him walk or he rode on daddy's shoulders a lot. The cutest thing was that every time we left an animal we would tell him to say "bye,bye" to the animal and he would wave at each one to say goodbye. It was a great trip and I can see many more in our near future.

Spring Break Day 1- Nana & Papa's House

Jumping with his ball

On Monday we went to spend the day with Nana and Papa. Karson had a blast. He colored a little while he watched Papa work But the most fun was when he got to go play on their new trampoline. He wasn't sure at first about bouncing, but after a while he got the hang of it.

Just Because

Deep in thought

Watch me climb inside the ottoman

Dressing Like Daddy

Lately every time I turn around Karson has pulled one of his ties out of his drawer and is paying with it. I think he wants to dress like daddy does. So on Monday night we gave him one of Kris' old ties to play with. Kris tied it and put it around his neck. He looked so cute running around the house in his tie and pajamas. He didn't want me to take it off at bedtime....but since it was probably a choking hazard we took it off.

Little Gym

In January Karson started going to little gym once a week. He goes with Grams, so I haven't actually gotten to see him in action but these pictures give me a good idea of how much fun he is having. I can already tell how much he has learned in the short time he has been going. I can't wait to see all the new things he is going to learn from this experience!

It's a...

I don't really know why, but for some reason I have been absent from blogging lately. And in my absence I have not even mentioned that we are expecting a second child in July. I can't believe I am already 17 weeks along and have not mentioned anything. I think that at first I did not blog about it because we kept it a secret for most of the first trimester, but since then I guess life has gotten in the way.

Anyway... we went to the doctor yesterday and found out that it is a BOY! We are very excited that Karson will have a little brother to play with and be best buddies for life with!

I will try to start blogging more about baby #2, Karson and the happenings of our life. ( I will post belly pics soon)

Rodeo

Isn't he a cute cowboy?!?!?!
Watching the rodeo. He was really into it.

He loved the goats

Loving on the goat...again

On Feb 2 Grams and Duke took Karson to the Fort Worth Rodeo. As you can tell from the pictures he had a blast! I guess we will have to go visit the petting zoo more often because it looks like he really likes hugging on the goats.
