Portland Zoo

This will be the last post about my trip home. :) We went to the zoo for a day which was a lot of fun. Here we are all sitting (Christina is taking the picture) out on the lawn eating our lunch.

Sawyer loved the petting zoo. It was fun having a kid at the zoo. He got so excited to see all of the animals.

Staring at the sea lions.

We got lions just a couple of years ago and I love them. I'm not really sure why though. Maybe it's because Maddy would always make us watch Lion King with her whenever she came over. :)

Sawyer liked getting up close and personal to the cats. He also likes to say "meow."

I LOVE snow cones. And I found out that Sawyer LOVES snow cones too!! He ate about half of my snow cone if not more.

So delicious!! I didn't even mind sharing. :)

The cutest animal at the zoo. He loved trying to get close to the animals.

I had such a great trip home. I loved seeing my parents, my sisters and Sawyer. I worry that Sawyer won't remember me the next time I see him. :( He is such a cutie and I miss him so much!

The Beach

We also went to the beach when I was home. Sawyer loved it! This was his second time going to the beach.

This is his "What is this stuff all over my hand look." He loved playing in the sand. Christina had a shovel and bucket for him to dig around. The shovel broke and it was really funny trying to watch Sawyer scoop up the sand with his broken shovel.

This is kind of a random picture.Those are green beans hanging out of his mouth. For those of you who don't know I hate green beans and I mean HATE! When I saw Christina feeding them to him I said to Sawyer, "Don't eat those they are yucky!" Christina was not very happy with me. He he.

Christina and I.

You can't go to the beach without getting burried in the sand.

My beautiful mermaid tail.

I tried to burry Sawyer in the sand but he just screamed. After he saw me get burried he seemed more willing so we dug a little hole and had him sit in it and then we burried the sand around him. He loved it.

We would burry him and then we he would break free and want to do it again.

Just chillin in the sand. :)

Sawyer loved the water! I thought he would scream because it was kind of cold but he didn't. He especially liked to find deep puddles and just sit and play in those.

We all had so much fun.

He liked the waves but tripped and fell and got crashed into by a wave but he didn't even fuss. He is a trooper.

After getting wet we dryed Sawyer off and layed out in the sun for a little bit. Some kids came and played soccer too close to our blanket and Sawyer got beaned in the head by the ball. Stupid teenagers! ;) He of course cried and we had to move our blanket away from the game. It was still a fun day and Sawyer was so much fun to play with at the beach.
