Lazy river, here we come!

Thursday, July 24th, 2008

Q and I are pretty big on traditions, and for several years our 4th of July one was to visit Phoenix. (We love it there: it’s hot and sunny, and we can lounge around the pool or spa.) Last year, we moved the trip to around my birthday – and we’re continuing that tradition by heading out later today. Zoe had tons of fun in the lazy river last summer (see below), and I can’t wait to get her out there again!

Birthday girls

My mom just sent a picture from my first birthday (thirtysomething years ago), and I thought it would be fun to post. I don’t think Zoe looks terribly much like me… but it’s still fun to compare!

Happy Birthday Mommy!

Thursday, July 24th, 2008

A little birdie told Elena yesterday that it was Mommy’s birthday today and Elena helped Zoe make Mommy a card. Needless to say Michelle was quite surprised to receive her “hand”-made card when she picked up Zoe yesterday. It was, of course, an early start to Michelle’s birthday weekend celebration. Check out Zoe’s art work below…
