Our Visit to Naples

This past weekend we went on a trip to Naples.  We got into town late on Thursday night, but after a relaxing morning we headed to the zoo!
 Dad and Bryn looking at the lions.  The lioness was huge and beautiful.
 With the zebras, but I think Bryn is looking at the boy next to us 
who let everyone know the zebra was a boy!
 The giraffes were very cool.  You could even feed them yourselves.
 Strolling along Palm Tree Lane
I think it is funny there was a big alligator exhibit since our hotel has signs by the lakes surrounding warning us not to feed the alligators and those are not fenced in!
 Leaving Bryn prints

 Hey Dad!  Did you see this big tiger over my shoulder?
She liked the giraffes, the really liked the parrots, but the 
most exciting were the fish in the pond outside the zoo!

Friday night and Saturday were busy spending time with Todd and Debbie Robinson and their new son, Cole.  All that time together and we never took pictures!  Big oops!
Sunday morning we headed to Fleishmann Park.
 I think the swing is a little big
 Crawling through a hippo
 Bryn loved the slide and the quickest way to go again is to climb back up
 Why play on the equipment when there is mulch?
I think she has been watching her dog play...
There was a splash zone at the park.  She was not real eager, but splashed a little.

That night we went to the beach to watch the sunset.
Bryn loved the powder, white sand and all the shells throughout it.




It was a great visit and we will be back in April!

11 Months Old

Bryn is now 11 months old.  At the end of this month she will be ONE!
She is still little, weighing in around 15 pounds (which means it only took 
11 months to double her birth weight).  She is crawling everywhere 
and shows just a little interest in walking.  Her Mumma is encouraging 
the crawling for as long as possible...Dad is getting anxious for her steps to come.

 It wasn't easy to get her to sit, look at me, and smile

When all she really wanted to do was crawl all over the bear!



She liked the bear so much that we are keeping it in her playroom!
