Zoo & Aquarium

We had a blast spending the weekend in Atlanta. First, we spent an entire day at the zoo...

For supper, we hit the Hard Rock Cafe (which by the way, it does not pay to have reservations there...we still had to wait 1 1/2 hours for a table!)

The next morning, it was off to the aquarium...

It was totally worth the trip & money spent to get see Molly's expression when she was finally face-to-face with a "pen-gun"...

With Spring here, it seems that the weekends get both busier & shorter! There never seems to be enough hours in the day.

After picking up Molly from school Friday, we headed straight to riding lessons. She's getting better & more comfortable with the horses as each week goes by...

We left horseback riding, got a quick bath, changed clothes & hit the stage...

Saturday brought with it a birthday party and then a trip to Flat Creek for supper. Flat Creek was SO nice & we had a great supper (even though my grilled crab legs were burned!) Molly absolutely loved it there & asked if we could move there to live...

Yesterday, it was time for Halli Creek's moment in the spotlight. She had Easter pictures done (with live bunnies) early yesterday morning & I cannot wait to see how they all turned out. Here's a picture I snapped of her quickly in the front yard...Then, Halli got to experience her first fishing trip before heading over to the Oglesby's for supper...

It was a VERY TIRING weekend...

My Girls...

I am definitely going to TRY to do a better job of keeping this blog updated. Things have just been SO busy lately with our active little girls. But thankfully, the weather has started getting warm enough that we can finally get them outside to enjoy it.

Molly has also started taking horseback riding lessons which she absolutely loves. She seems to be "a natural" so far & looks forward to going every week.

Halli is just the sweetest, best baby that I think I have ever been around. She is SO laid back all the time and is a great sleeper at night.

However, she has started having a little trouble keeping her milk down lately. We've been back & forth to her pediatrition a lot lately & had her on several different medicines for acid reflux. We even tried her on baby food....

But that didn't work either! She just spit it up too. We are now being referred to a pediatric gastroenterologist in Macon. Hopefully, we'll be able to get some answers & get her straigtened out really soon without having to be on a lot of medicines or do anything evasive. I just keep praying that her tummy will eventually just "heal itself". We're taking the girls to Atlanta this weekend to the zoo and the aquarium. Molly is just fascinated with penguins (which she pronounces "pen-guns") & we've promised her for a while now that we would take her somewhere to see some. She's also looking forward to seeing a "G-raff) at the zoo! She is so excited about the weekend...and honestly, so am I! I'll end this with some new quotes from Molly: "Halli, you about to outgrow that onesie...we're going to have to get you a two-sie!" Braylon: "Molly, if you don't keep pushing me off the bed, I'm going to be in the floor!" Molly: "Well, that's where you need to be anyway!" At the school breakfast table when Braylon was misbehaving, "Moma, don't forget that Mama said for you to jerk a knot in him if you need to!" Oh, my daughter!!
