Weekend Wrap-Up.

Robert has been traveling A LOT for work lately so he has been out of town quite a bit. We used this long holiday weekend to just hang out and enjoy our time together. We did a random assortment of lots of things so here we go...
We went to Target and ordered Robert some new glasses (the old ones were missing an entire side so they were a little tough to wear!) Of course Robert decided that Elena needed some new glasses too, so here are her lovely new pink and purple Dora sunglasses!

Which she proudly displayed the rest of the day - even while she was playing at the park! She really loves these glasses and I love that they actually stay on her face!


We took more advantage of the gorgeous weather with a trip to the Zoo! Elena was trying to be as small as the littlest penguin here.

Is it just me or does she look slightly terrified of the alligators behind us? Lol.
This little girl can not get enough of the reptiles and amphibians!


She got to feed her giraffe buddy Emmett, and he returned the favor with a sloppy kiss right on her cheek, again! That happened last time too! :)
She insisted on pushing her stroller and not riding in it.
Last time we went to the Zoo she kept saying we were going to listen to music. My Mom and I had no idea what she was talking about until she pointed out the Zoo Key boxes scattered throughout the Zoo. You put in a key and it plays a little song and gives facts about the animals. Last time we forget this beloved key to activate the boxes and she was so sad. So we made sure we had it this time and she made sure to find every single one in the zoo! She had her own little dance party at each one too!

We had to keep telling her not to touch this bird - she really wanted to pet it!
We love being outside! Thank goodness the weather seems to be getting warmer!

Another thing we played with a lot this weekend was her train set - she just loves it!

Check out this ginormous city that Daddy built for her!

Now, please don't think any less of me, but we had never been to Orange Leaf since it has been in Wichita! I know, I know - crazy! So we decided to go this weekend. Can I just say YUM?! We will be heading here more often!! :)



Last but not least, we purchased Elena an adorable dollhouse. This little girl is now OBSESSED! Oh my goodness. I'm pretty sure she didn't sleep very well that night because she wanted to get up and play with it! But can you blame her? How cool is this dollhouse? It is going to keep her occupied for hours at a time!

I think this last picture sums up the weekend in Elena's eyes! Mom -- will you please stop letting the paparazzi follow us everywhere and take my picture!! ;)
