ZOO!

I had to blog about the zoo before I talked about our moving extravaganza.  Let me start by saying this - I think I love the zoo far more than Kyliebug does.  It's pretty much one of my favorite things to do.  In fact, Toby and I went there when we first started dating.  

 Giraffe!  

We have been goofy from the start.

 Riding the train :)

Loving each other.  I think we're pretty good at that. 

I still can't believe that Toby and I will have been married for 4 years this September, and in December it will have been five years that I've been able to call him mine.  Crazy how time flies, isn't it?  

Okay.  Back to the zoo.  We were able to take Kylie to the zoo last year about this time.  She was such a cute little bald sweetie.  I just love watching her in wonderment.  

Checking out the chimps.

That Gorilla has some great balance!

 Elephants!

Scary, but she sure did love that kitty.

Pretty as a flower.

Love this picture.  It's like foreshadowing into her teenage years.

Group picture on the train!

Goofy little bald baby.

On to this year's zoo trip.  We had the privilege of going with Josh, Ann Claire, and Lila!  It was pretty awesome I must say.  We all had a blast, and Kylie couldn't get enough.  I so wish that those three lived right next door to us.  

Lila and Uncle Toby look pretty excited about the zoo :)

Toby and his mini-me

Pretty momma and baby

Scary snake!

However, Kylie has no fear.

Checking on Lila to make sure she's doing okay :)  Such a good big cousin.

She chased the penguin as it swam.  So stinkin' cute.

Lots and lots of fish!

We're a penguin family!

Checking out the giraffe.

Sweet, sweet little family

She got to pet it!

Farmer Kylie.

Love these two.  They are too funny.

Josh and his mini-me

Kylie had to have her picture with the gorilla.

Now, that we've worn out the Little Rock Zoo, I think it is time to give another one a try.  Since we're so close up here - the St. Louis Zoo is definitely on the list of places to visit!  I can't wait to go!!

I just love my family.  Not just my little immediate family, but the whole clan.  And, not just the Bullock clan, but also the Tumbleson, Henry, and Ammons.  We are blessed beyond measure with a whole host of wonderful extended family.  God is so very good.  

I love these little sweeties!

Weird how time slips away, isn't it?  Suddenly you turn around and it's eleven years later.  Things never stay the same.  That's something my Daddy has always told me.  I never really understood that until one Wednesday afternoon when I was in 9th grade.   Pardon me if this post is choppy, but it's something that I can't recall without reliving it.  I am already crying. I remember everything so vividly.  It was just a normal day - just a normal day.  Gosh, I wish it would've just been a normal day.  We went to and from class all morning.  We were all so innocent.  Smiling, laughing.  Having a great time.  Lunch came and went.  Fifth period started.  I, personally, was sitting in Mrs. Dardenne's room wondering where the heck she was because believe me, something had to be wrong for Mrs. Dardenne to be late to class.  I'm sure many of my peers were also wondering why there was suddenly a feeling of something...

Sunny Day! Sweeping the Clouds Away!

With the snow melting and the sun shining bright, I am reminiscing on a couple of Saturday's past.  Two weeks ago we were celebrating the random mid-70 degree weather by heading to Petit Jean Mountain.  It was a pretty spectacular little trip. We left later than expected, so I chose to drive since I drive a little faster than Toby ;).  Kylie was busting with excitement because I told her about the awesome waterfall that she'd get to see for the first time.  She couldn't wait to get there! We got off on the Morrilton exit and I started to turn to the right.  Toby insisted that we turn left, but I was almost positive that Petit Jean was to the right.  After all, I had done a Home Health clinical just a few months before.  We had driven all over this area - surely I knew where I was going.  So, I talked him into turning to the right.  We drove, and we drove.  We drove for almost 25 minutes.  I kept saying - "Oh, there it is! ...

Has it really been almost 4 months?!

I honestly can't believe how time has flown by.  So many things have happened since I last posted! Kylie has turned 3 and now has a sweet baby sister who is 8 weeks old already.  And, let me tell you - Gracie is such a happy child.  I love her sweet smile in the mornings when I sing to her.  It melts my heart!   "I'm TEE!" My beautiful little Gracie.      Having fun with GranJan at her birthday party!  My sweet best friends, Casey and Shelly! My little artist.  She LOVES painting! Sweet little face. My very first nephew, Joseph Ryan Bullock, finally made his appearance 17 days late at 7 pounds and 11 ounces.  May 9th couldn't have come quick enough for sweet Ann Claire and Josh.  Now, he's already 10 days old.  Aren't they cute?! Ann Claire - you are beautiful and I'm so proud of you!! Kylie couldn't wait to meet her handsome cousin! Sweet little man...
