A Grant & Mommy Day | Louisville Zoo

 Howdy Family and Friends! 

It seems like life is so busy these days between my photography buisness being full time (which I absolutely LOVE), school (don't love so much...lol), family life, and my favorite subject...Grant at 22 months old. :) It seems like for the last month we haven't had a chance to just have a day out for the two of us. So, I decided to take Friday (July 15) off and have a fun day with Grant at the Louisville Zoo. 

We are Zoo members so we go at least once a month and love it! This trip was no except. It was awesome, but wore us both out! LOL! I believe we spend a little over 4 hours at the zoo exploring everything and also playing at the splash park. :) There was even a brand new baby giraffe to watch and enjoy. :)  

I let Grant lead the pace...so if you know a 22 month old... they stop to look at every rock along the way. LOL! What a great reminder to stop and "smell the roses." We all need to slow down and enjoy our little ones more. I'm blessed to be a stay at home mom, but even with that there is little time to have full fun play days in the midst of all the work too. I just wanted to share a few pictures I took during our visit to the zoo. :) I hope that you enjoy!

Fun at the Splash Park with Lukas | Mobile Uploads

We went to the Louisville Zoo Splash Park today with friends! Look at how excited and happy Grant is in this 1st picture! I love it!!

Grant trying to figure out where the water comes from. LOL!

He had just gotten sprayed in the head! LOL!

Lukas (on left in orange) LOVED IT! He would put his face and whole body in the water. We were laughing hysterically at him.

WOOHOO!! Fun Stuff!

Happy Easter

Happy Easter Family & Friends! I hope you're having a beautiful morning so far! I've been up since 3am for some reason cleaning! LOL! I believe in taking full advantage of the urge to clean when it happens... about every 3 months. LOL!!! :) 

The Easter bunny has delivered the goodies to our house and I can't wait for Grant to wake up and find them. :) I will post pictures or a video later of Grant with his Easter basket and some from our Easter celebrations. 

Some of you probably don't know if you aren't on my FACEBOOK that Stephen had knee surgery this past Thursday. He's doing well, but can't really get into the Easter fun as much as he would like. I will post more about his surgery later. 

Have a beautiful day! 

Hugs,

Grant's 16 Month Update

Hello Family & Friends! I just wanted to make a quick little blog update. Grant turned 16 months on August 23, 2010! I took him to the doctor on December 28th. His stats: 


Weight: 23lbs. 13oz. (He's in the 30th %tile)
Height: 33.5" (He's in the 97th %tile)


So, you can tell from his stats that he is very tall and skinny. He runs circles around me all of the time...I'm sure that has something to do with his weight. LOL!! The doctor said that he looks great and is growing wonderfully! :) Hooray for good news! 


Well...here is a little picture I took of him this past week. :) 

I hope you have a beautiful day! 
Hugs, 
Ashley
