Indoor gym

Today we went with some of our friends from school to a new indoor gym. It was so much fun! They had all kinds of things to run around and play with, and everything is padded so we got to be pretty adventurous.

They had a foam circle with a little wedge cut out that we sat in and rocked back and forth. As you can tell by his face, Aidan really liked it!


 Our favorite thing by far, though, was the foam pit. It's like a big swimming pool filled with these foam blocks, so Brittany would just throw us in and we could "swim" around for a bit. Maybe someday soon we'll be brave enough to jump in by ourselves.

(Brittany asked us to look at her and say "cheese", so Patrick the Ham gave his best model pose. What a funny boy!)

They have open gym every Friday, so we hope to go back and play with our friends again sometime!

Zoo!

For the month of April, the zoo near us had a farm exhibit with all kinds of baby animals that we went to see. It was a beautiful day and it wasn't too crowded, so we had a really great time!

 We saw wolves, but we call them big puppies, because that's really what they look like to us
 Pointing at some animals

 A cool bald eagle!
 The lynx, or another dog, depending on how you look at it
 Now for the cool part - the farm babies and petting zoo! We LOVED the goats!
 Checking out the sheep

 P laughing at the goat

The cows were so big!

They had chickens, but we were too early to see any babies. Darn!
 A baby cow!
 Easter Bunny?
A very, very big pig!!
 Patrick telling us all about the cows

 We even got to see a cow milking demonstration. Did you know that's where our milk comes from? We thought Joe Mauer got it since he's always on the front of the milk jog!
 Sleeping bears
And Aidan's favorite, the turtles!

We had such a fun day and can't wait for the weather to get nicer so we can spend more time at the zoo!

Patrick Idol?

We're out of space to load more pictures (and trying to fix it, we promise!) but we can still put up videos!

It's a little known fact, but Patrick is an amazing singer! Here's his rendition of his current favorite, "Twinkle Twinkle". You have to listen closely, but all most of the words are there and you can definitely tell what it is!

Keep rockin on, P!

We're temporarily experiencing some technical difficulties. Thank you for your patience as we work these issues out.

We've had a fun few weeks and can't wait to show you what we've been up to!
