Ice Cream, Parties and Randomness

Zoe loves her father. She loves her mother more. But she loves ice cream more than both of us combined. Just ask her and she'll tell you. Plus, her face really says it all. We were able to hang out with our friends the other day, which include Karim. Those two really enjoyed their ice cream.

Of course, there are other times when Zoe gets to have ice cream where you would think that she doesn't really enjoy it.

Well, you would be mistaken because she only makes that face when I ask her to smile. I think I may have commented on her mustache, and she didn't like that very much. The other day we went to help celebrate Issac's birthday at Clark Park. Zoe had a great time seeing some friends, but she was most excited to see old Dyllie-Pickle.

Judging by these pictures, I assume we can expect great things from these two in the future. Of course, by great things I mean lots of trouble, but I think that was already clear from the poses struck above. Since we were already in West Philly, and Cheryl needed some dinner, Zoe and I stopped by our favorite Chinese place to get some take out. While waiting at the bar, someone noticed a basket of lollipops.

Of course she got one and no, it doesn't really matter how good or bad she was at the time. If there are lollipops to be had, you can be sure that Zoe will get one. Such a troublemaker.

Meet the Flintstones?!?

Cheryl wanted me to share the following with everyone. These are her words, not mine. Frankly, I know I'm the lucky one. So obviously the blog is Michael's thing, which is great really because if it were up to me it would have started and ended with 99 days left! But I wanted to make a post so I could thank Michael for everything he has done for me throughout this pregnancy and most of all during delivery. There is no question that being with Michael is the smartest thing I've ever done and Zoe is lucky to call him Dad. The reason we had a planned c-section was that Zoe was 'unstable lie'. In the 4 weeks before she was due she was breech, head down, breech, and then head down again. As it was explained to us, this is pretty rare. They expected that even if she was in the right position when I went into labor, she would turn during contractions creating a dangerous situation for all of us. The day of surgery I was still pretty calm. Once I was prepp...

Florida or Bust

Last week we all flew down to Florida to visit with Nana and Poppy. We didn't take off until Zoe had a nice helping of scrambled eggs from the airport. She loves scrambled eggs! This wasn't Zoe's first flight and she was a dream. She slept for more than half of the flight there. Once we were down there,we did our best to take advantage of the weather. Back in Philadelphia the high was in the mid-40's and it was going to snow, but in Hudson it was in the 70's. We took plenty of walks in the neighborhood. Zoe was also enjoying Nana's large tub. She really loves the water. During our visit we took an outing to Weeki Wachee Springs State Park . I found this place online because they have a live mermaid show. Along with that there were peacocks, an animal show and a river boat ride. Zoe seemed to enjoy it all. There is a heated pool in Nana and Poppy's community, which I was anxious to take Zoe to. She's never really been in a pool bef...

Election Day

When Zoe was born, Barack Obama was the president. Today the country is voting to determine who will be president for the next four years. It will still be a long time before Zoe gets to cast her own vote, but when Cheryl got home today, the two of them went around the corner to our voting center and did their civic duty. Cheryl took a couple of pictures. The girls are asleep now, and the race is still too close to call, but I assume when we get up tomorrow (hopefully not in the middle of the night) we'll know who who won. I hope everyone got out to vote today! As you can see by her sticker, Zoe did.
