On Saturday, Blaine had his first ever visit to the zoo. We got to see the coolest animals (rhinos, silverback gorilla, bears) and some not-so-cool animals (boa constrictor, sloths, giant toad). I think Blaine liked it and heck, so did we! More pics on the way~

toeing the line...

...and yes, there is pink on his baby blanket. Or should I say, my baby blanket. Hurrah for Care Bears!

right before my eyes...

you got me!

i surrender....

don't mind me...just passing through..

reading a book...

It's hard to accept changes. Blaine is growing up and I will always miss my baby, but I'm excited to see what life has in store for him~

a summer moon.....

this last one is my favorite...

While home, I was able to take some pretty amazing landscape photos. Dad took me all the way up to McBride and back around on the Richland side. That rhymed....weird. Anyway...we had a wonderful time and I was able to see the valley in a totally different light. It was incredible! Critics agree that I am no Ansel Adams...but I think I was able to hold my own~
