The Zoo

We took JJ to the Zoo the other day for the first time. He called almost every animal a puppy and the tiger he called a kitty. We were very lucky with the weather it was cloudy the whole time and then just as we were leaving the parking lot it started to rain.

This tiger was really close and kept growling at us

A picture of me! this doesn't usually happen because I love taking the pictures so I'm always behind the camera. Thank you Sean!
Jordan and I
Jordan loved the duck in the water. He also loved the water and after this picture we had to take him away from this area because he kept trying to go in the water.

Jordan just loved sitting on this fake giraffe

The train!

The seats were a little small for Sean and I but Jordan had a great time.
And of course we had to take him to the park at the zoo.

The Beach

On Sean's Friday off last week we took JJ to the beach. I can't believe how he has no fear of the water he just goes and goes. Sean went in with him while I took the pictures. We later realized that we didn't get any pictures of me and JJ at the beach. That's okay I'm usually the one taking all the pictures and I always forget to get in them. Plus I'm not a huge seaweed fan so I usually enjoy the ocean from the beach. After our day at the beach we headed back to my parents for a dip in the pool.

Swimming at Grandma and Grandpa's

Today Jordan and I went to visit my dad at their pool. My dad is on his holidays this week, what a nice week to have off. Jordan just loved the pool he kept wanting to jump to my dad from the steps. It was so cute to watch. He went under two times. The first time he drank some pool water and cried for a little then he was back to jumping in again. The second time was on video and he actually held his breath. I will have to get the video posted some time because he just looks like he dove in. He loved the water so much he didn't want it to end but you could tell he was getting tired and he was ready for his nap.

Looking cool.
He is really brave he wants to keep jumping off the step into grandpa's arms.
The catch

Loving the stairs they had put in this year

Visit with Papa and Nana

The other day we went over to Jordan's Papa and Nana's place for a visit. Sean and his dad had to get the boat engine ready for a fishing trip they are planning on taking in the middle of the month. Next year they will take JJ on their father son fishing trip. Papa hung up a swing for Jordan and all of the grandchildren to play in. They loved it of course. Nana's daughter Coby and her fiance Jason came over with their son Memphis. He is turning one at the end of the month.
