Spring Sunday

Today was a great day! We woke up super early (thank you, Louis) and headed to Jackson. Rob was on a mission to find a golf club. We spent a long time in Dick's Sporting Goods and found what Rob was looking for. Then, we had lunch at Cane's, which reminds me of college and also of being pregnant. (We would stop at Cane's after every Dr. appointment during my entire pregnancy. Not my craving- Rob's). Louis loved the fries. Then, we went to visit Rob's sister, Casey, her husband, Sam, and their sweet baby Gracie. Louis and Gracie are exactly a year apart, and they had a lot of fun together. After we got home we sat outside, ate crawfish, and enjoyed the beautiful weather. Someone refused to take a nap....so we decided to go to the Country Club to play golf. Louis had a great time riding in the cart. When we would stop, he would jump out and run straight towards the ball and pick it up. So much for the golf game! This was the perfect way to end the weekend. Only 9 weeks left until summer!!

Spring Break 2k12

 Instead of going on a trip for Spring Break, we have stayed around town. This is pretty much the only time I have to get all of my appointments out of the way and spend time with Louis. Yesterday, my friend Christin and I took our kids to the Jackson Zoo. I haven't been since Elementary School, and I was really pleased. We went early in the morning, so the Spring Break crowd wasn't crazy yet. It was the perfect size for us to see all of the animals before the kids got fussy. (Well, just Louis was fussy). Louis's favorite animals were the giraffes. He kept pointing and talkng to them. We visited their habitat twice. Another favorite were the otters. You could watch them underwater and then they went down a slide and played outside. The kids really enjoyed being up close to the animals. Our little LSU tigers especially loved the tigers in the zoo. We were lucky that the tigers were right up at the glass of their cage when we went by, so the kids were able to get within inches of them. It was great weather, and a perfect day for the zoo. I can't wait to go back!

Too interested in the giraffes to pay attention to photos
