The Sparts had fun climbing all over and riding the pretend critters. They definitely made the trip to the Zoo more fun!

This time of year early in the morning on a weekday is a great time to head to the Zoo. There were hardly any visitors there, and we pretty much had the run of the place. We’ll definitely be taking him again. Next time, though, we may do it on a Friday afternoon when we can pick Maya up as a surprise and take both of them.

Last, and certainly not least, this morning Robb sent me this photo of Alo with his latest “prize” for pooping in the potty. Every time he poops in the potty he gets to choose from an array of brand new Matchbox cars, trucks, tractors, etc. By the time he turns 18 he’s going to need a warehouse to store his collection! He’s such a big boy. I can’t wait to see all of them again!!

From Robb: “4 days without a diaper. A couple accidents but we’re almost there. He had earned himself like 30 cars.” 

 Have I mentioned how much I LOVE being a grandma??

Today I’m getting some paperwork done at the house and then teaching two classes – one in La Mesa at 3:30 and one at home this evening at 6:30.
