John's New Favorite Movie ... Madagascar 3

Madagascar 3 was released on DVD on Tuesday, and those are John's favorite movies.  We surprised him with it last night, and he was so excited.  Once the movie started, he was totally focused on the couch and didn't move his hands or legs keeping this pose the entire movie.

Then, we watched the part where the animals are in the circus.

John began very intently imitating them on the trapeze and flying through the air.

Playing in the Rain

John had so much fun playing in all the rain a couple of weeks ago and enjoyed putting on his jacket and rain boots.

 

 

 

Ft. Worth Zoo

John and Daddy spent some time at the Ft. Worth Zoo while Emmalie was at the Ft. Worth Gift Market.  We had a great time and were really impressed with the zoo.

John really liked the bears!

This one stopped and kept snorting & smelling John's popcorn.

 

This was a cool wooden log that was opened into the bears enclosure.

John crawled in, and you can see a bear in the background.

 Watching the penguins

There was a cool Western town with a petting zoo as well.

 

Mayborn Museum .. Reading, Building and Music

John has begun to explore more of the rooms at the Mayborn Museum in Waco lately.  He recently sat down for a quick read, did some building with large blocks, found a ping pong ball maze and a musical instrument he enjoyed playing and even had a tea party!

 

 

 

More Ice Cream Please!

As John gets older, he's starting to get more opinions and preferences.  On this occasion, he decided that mint chocolate chip ice cream would make a great dessert.  He ate two small bowls and wanted more!

Climbing the Slide at the Park

John is getting more and more daring and confident.  Here he is at a local park climbing up the big kids slide.  The best part is when he claps and is so proud at the top!

Enjoying the Outdoors

John loves the outdoors and doing anything outside.  Here are some pictures of him playing with a grasshopper and helping Uncle Tugg work in the yard.
