GEORGE is THREE!!!

George had his third birthday party at Maley's this weekend! As usual, he was the life of the party! He is so beautiful and good-natured and smart! We love us some George! I was a little worried, though, because Anna Claire is still not so much on the swimming idea. She finally got in with Aunt Mandi, but that didn't last long. She went down the slide to Uncle Kyle one time and decided she had had enough!!!

Uncle Kyle and the birthday boy!

"Swimming" if you can call it that, with Aunt Mandi...

Not real happy at this point...

Alena's beautiful girls... Bonnie and Audrey (loved the water and had a blast!)

Lil Miss

Pouting, which is how she spent most of the party...

We love the zoo!

Last weekend it was chilly, but pretty, so we decided to get out and go to the zoo since we had all been cooped up in the house sick for so long. We had a great day! Anna Claire is getting old enough now that she really enjoys the animals and can identify them. For some reason, on this trip, she decided she did not like monkeys. Every time we would go near a monkey display she would start... "don't like monkeys, don't like monkeys..." Wonder what that was all about?

This is Anna Claire reading the zoo map to decide where we were going to go first. She studied the map periodically to make sure we were still on track...

Lil Miss Hollywood with her stylin' shades...

Who needs a stroller anyway? She is a BIG GIRL!

This elephant came as close as it could to Anna Claire and Sam. Anna loved it!

Some pics I have been meaning to post...

I don't know what I did to deserve this mad face as she was sucking all the icing off the Valentine's cupcakes!!!

This is a dress my Dad bought for me when I was two years old. He bought it in Europe somewhere and my Mom found it the other day and brought it to us. Of course, no cooperation from Anna Claire to take a photo, but you get the picture. It is so stinkin' cute on her.

Sorry, for some reason I never could get this pic to rotate!

Pics from the park... one of our favorite spots!

Showing Papaw her "bo-bo's"

Action shot...

Monkeying around...

Love that smile!

Showing Papaw how fast she can run...

"Helping" with the dishes???

HELP!!!

I do not have time or patience! I am trying to figure out how to make my blog all pretty like everyone else's blog, but I just keep messing it up. I am going to continue to fiddle with it... so bear with me...

Evasive maneuvers...

Anna Claire does not like to have her picture taken! Katie, Kristi and I tried EVERYTHING to get some good shots, to no avail... some of them are cute anyway!
