The zoo and the new do'


My Dad is in town and yesterday we all went to the zoo.  It was perfect weather and we made it through the entire zoo.




The first time Ellis has enjoyed the carousel, finally!



Remember this same spot right before I had Maci?


Petting a real lion hide:



For those not aware, last week Ellis decided to help out by giving herself a haircut...we decided to finish the job by having a professional step in.  Ellis cut all around the sides as well as her bangs.  So, pixie cut it is.  She got to pick out a movie to watch during the cut and she made sure to not smile once the entire time.  When it was over she immediately said, "Can I have my lolly-popsickle now?" (translation: sucker).  We agreed it will be best in the future to let only grown-ups cut her hair.



And Maci :)
