My Two at the Zoo.

Colin's favorite was of course the aquarium. He loved the shark tank especially. He loved it all though. Surprise, surprise. He is as obsessed as always with animials. Chloe was relatively unimpressed by all of it. She was more excited about her Capri Sun and cookies...the elephants got an "ooh" and she squealed at a few fish, but otherwise, she was just along for the ride.

Chloe's Celeb Encounter

Chloe had her first run-in with a Steeler this weekend. We had a chance encounter with Steeler Alan Faneca on Saturday after participating in an Epilepsy walk in memory of Julie McCormick, a friend from high school.

I asked Mr. Faneca if he would kindly sign my kid. He did. :) It must have tickled because she was giggling and wiggling. So funny.

Myself, Chloe and Natalie. It was a nice day, yet bittersweet. Julie is very much missed and I would much rather have done the walk with her. Regardless, our team did a pretty good job raising money for the cause.

What a start to summer.

Jeremy hasn't been feeling well. Colin has something going on again...cough, stuffiness...allergies/infection/cold...I don't know. Chloe is cutting her 7th tooth, which we are thrilled about (starting to wonder if she might not get anymore), yet she is miserable and I think might have some of what her Dad had earlier in the week. Not exactly the start to summer we had hoped for. Oh, well, either way...it's here I suppose. They all just better suck it up. I have my beach gear ready. :) kidding, of course.

Contentment

So true, so fitting.

Time for summer!
