Zoo 2011

I try to take the boys to the zoo at least once every summer. The other day, I realized that I hadn't taken them yet this year. I wanted to take them but I was a little nervous to go in the heat, and walk all over when I am almost 8 months pregnant. Anymore, it seems like I lose all my energy after doing something for more than an hour. But I wanted them to be able to go, especially since there is a dinosaur exhibit there right now. So we loaded up the new van, and took off yesterday. Most of these picture probably look about the same as every other year because we always go on the train and the carousel. So sorry if they look familiar. I did survive the zoo, and I am glad I got to take my boys! I was amazed at how many pregnant women I saw there. I bet at least a third of the women that I saw were pregnant! So I guess it wasn't that big a deal that I braved the heat and the hills seeing as everyone else did too.

Bear Lake/Camping

I have been horrible at taking pictures lately. Well for about the last two or three years. Tim noticed that we have a ton of pictures of Chase when he was a baby but hardly any of Kamron. So my new goal is to get that camera out again and take lots and lots of pictures. I made that goal after our last camping trip so there really isn't that many pictures here. But this last camping trip was the dirtiest camping trip we have ever been on. Now don't get me wrong, my boys are REALLY good at getting dirty, but this trip they were especially dirty. I gave them baths every night but ten minutes after they went outside again, this is what they looked like. I also gave them several wipey baths during the day.

One of the days we were camping, we decided to go to Bear Lake because we weren't too far away. I thought the water would be too cold for the boys to play in, so we didn't go very prepared. But for the 20 minutes that we were at the lake, the boys all really enjoyed it. Matt was at his mom's that weekend, so that is why he is not in any of the pictures.
