1st Day

This is what we came all the way to NY for...so that Daddy can go to a big kid school. He got his books weeks before and drooled over them and talked about how excited he was to study such great works. On his first day of school he was just like a Kindergartner, wondering if he was going to fit in and if the other kids would like him. Once he gathered his books, it was a quick kiss and off to the shuttle.






Classic "Bye Mom" wave!



With Daddy off the kids and I were off to the Bronx Zoo for Claire's last day of freedom before she started school the next day. The kids loved exploring the Gopher Holes. They loved popping their heads up and having the little furry things right next to them. It was a crack up to see their expressions as they came out of the dark cave and into the light.


Lance had a great time being a monkey and scaling this tree.
Claire loved balancing on the logs.

This the the famous, and very rare 2 headed turtle!





Jack, of course had love at first sight with this huge turtle. When I asked him if he wanted his picture taken with he he got so excited and then very kindly said, "Yes."



Of all of the things at the Zoo this is what Claire wanted me to take a picture of....Daddy's least favorite bug. Huge Hissing Cockroaches! Notice that she would not stand against the glass to get her picture taken with them. She was so excited to show Matt the picture.
