Philadelphia Zoo with Makenzie!

We finally got to have Makenzie, Amy and Tom go to the zoo with us! The weather was perfect that day so we grabbed the opportunity to head out!

The kids had a great time checking out all the animals, petting the sheep and goats and getting a chance to play together! Here's some cute pics from the day!

 wait for me!

Another trip to the Zoo!

Since the weather forcast didn't show rain or scattered thunderstorms we took advantage of the warm sunny weather and made another trip to the zoo! Gotta love memberships! This time me, Brayden and Aunt Katie took a trip!  We had a lot of fun despite how warm it was. It was a much more relaxed experience since we went during the week and it wasn't a holiday. I know, brilliant of us to go for the first time on Mother's Day!

We were able to see more and different exhibits and even get to the tree house!  Brayden had so much fun "testing" everything out and looking at all the animals!  This time at the petting zoo the sheep were out so he finally got to pet one.  

Dino Egg!

Baby giraffe! 

 Lazy gorilla!

 She looks sad but it's just her face, lol 

she had two babies that she was swinging around with! 

First Mothers Day!

I am SO behind on posting and keeping up with my blog!

Finally getting to celebrate a mothers day was absolutely amazing! This year we weren't stressing or crying over failed cycles and it was a very welcome change.  Becoming a mom has been the most amazing and rewarding experience of my life. Conception, pregnancy and birth weren't the easiest on me but I would do it a hundred times over just to have my little miracle! I can not begin to explain how becoming a mom has changed my life, and I couldn't imagine it any other way!

For mothers day we decided to finally use our Philadelphia Zoo membership and took Brayden for the first time! He had so much fun and did really great! I'm not sure if he was more excited about all the people and kids or the animals. :)  We also went to the kids petting zoo and he had fun exploring and petting and feeding goats and llamas.   He loved the big animals the most, prob b/c they are easiest to see. Lol. We also got Brayden a tiger sippy straw cup as a souvenier to celebrate his first trip to the Zoo!We had an amazing day for my first mothers day as a family! :)

Checking out some animals!!!
