Wordless Wednesday-Diaper Head!

Morning At the Zoo!

Peter and I spent the morning at the MN Zoo. He loved it!! I have been so bad about renewing our annual membership so he's never even been there before. When the twins were infants, I would take them at least once a month. Now that I got another membership, we will go there more! The zoo is so nice as they have lots of indoor exhibits when it's cold out so we will have lots to see even in the winter months.

Peter especially loved the monkeys...doesn't every kid??!! We also spent alot of time at the dolphin tank, the shark exhibit and watching the fresh water fish. I was so disappointed to find out that the dolphin show hasn't been going on since August as they are introducing new dolphins to the pod and one is expecting a baby any day. That was always the highlight of every visit for my kids (and me)!

By the time we went to the bird show, Peter was all zoo-d out! The beauty of a membership is that you can go for just a few hours and don't feel like you need to get your money's worth staying a long time. We even met a little girl that is also from Guatemala and was Peter's age! Alice was adorable!

Well, off to start my corned beef and cabbage in the crock pot! Since the kids won't like it, I bought a shamrock-shaped pizza for them at Papa Murphy's! Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

Hockey Season FINALLY Over!

This weekend was Greta's hockey tournament. She did so well this season and really improved. She even scored a goal at the game!! Her season was short and manageable as her Daddy was a coach so I didn't always have to drive her to practices. Hannah's hockey season, on the other hand, was 4 1/2 months long!! That is just too long to be running to games and practices up to 5 or 6 days a week and at locations all over the Twin cities metro area, often driving in winter storms!! Get the picture! I was happy to see her season finally end but it was a lot of fun while it lasted. She really improved this year too and loves, loves, LOVES the sport.

Now we only have Rich's hockey left to go. He is playing in a national tournament in Florida this spring! Not sure yet if the whole family will go and watch him.

Once we got home from the tournament this weekend, Peter went right for his little hockey stick and starting shooting pucks and balls at the net! He loves the game so much. You can see his joy when he makes a goal!!!
