The Zoo Run

The San Antonio Zoo has an annual zoo run and this year Jeremiah ran in the 0-3 race which covers a quarter mile. He was really excited about it. He even got a racing bib and a ribbon at the end. I think he came in 4th or 5th but of course we said he won and then he said yea, everyone won mom. It will be interesting the day he realizes that the person who comes in 1st is actually the winner.

Jeremiah at the starting line envisioning his victory, okay maybe it was a little early and he was still waking up.





Below is a video of Jeremiah at the start of the race.

Labor Day Weekend

San Antonio Botanical Gardens
Huge wooden spider and web in the Texas wilderness portion. Below Brian and Jeremiah next to a row of 3 gigantic wooden spiders. It made me feel like we were in the movie "Honey I Shrunk the Kids."

It is always fun when we have family or friends come and visit. This past labor day weekend my mom and dad, otherwise known as Halmoni and Poppa were able to fly down for a quick visit. The kids of course were excited. Annalise kept calling for either Halmoni or Poppa if either one was out of her sight. Jeremiah of course basked in the attention of having both his grandparents here to spoil him. Most of the visit was spent hanging out, swimming, and shopping for the grandkids, but we did do some touristy stuff. The San Antonio Botanical Gardens had a travelling bug exhibit. And if I have not mentioned it before, Annalise really likes bugs. These bugs were huge as you can tell from the pictures. Jeremiah would not touch any of them, especially not the spider even though that was the one he really wanted to see. The weekend went by way too quickly but the visit was great.
