what is it you ask?  what we refer to as “feel better” (brooke’s family calls it that and now so does luke)

apparently, he thought his bear needed some. ( we use it for diaper rashes- works great)

needless to say, he got in the bath. if that’s what he wanted, he could have just asked.  his bear is being washed as i write this.

san diego zoo

this past sunday, we went to san diego for  a couple days with jeff’s mom.  she wanted her brother and sister to see her grandkids.  (do you blame her, they’re ADORABLE)  sunday night, we had dinner at lorraine’s brother’s house. where they all got to meet the kids and i for the first time.

monday was a day to have fun.  we decided that we would enjoy the zoo.  we thought we would spend about  2-3 hours there and then go to the beach and back to the hotel.  but, the zoo is so big that we ended up being there for 7 hours.  we still didn’t get to see everything.  it took us 3 hours just to walk through the “ children’s zoo” we had so much fun.  the weather was beautiful. 

here are some pictures.  i did not take a lot, but atleast i didn’t forget to take pictures on my vacation.  ( it seems that every time there is a really cute picture oppurtunity, my camera is never handy- why is that?)  we had a blast anyway.

suggestions, PLEASE

i think that i will be attempting to potty train luke in the next couple weeks.  i bought him cars underwear the other day. today, he is wearing underwear over his diaper.  does anyone have any tips/suggestions/advice for potty training?  is it harder to potty train boys?  how long should it take?

off to work

this afternoon, luke came and proudly announced to me that he was going to work.  it was really cute. :)

i’m not sure where he gets the idea that you take bags to work because jeff doesn’t.  however, it just came to my mind that he does take a little cooler bag for lunch. 

kids are funny!

here are some close-ups of sara
