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.

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.

Riding Together for the First Time

Today my bike was finally fixed, so I picked it up from the shop before picking Zoe up from Science Club. When she saw my bike she was very excited to go for a ride. It was overcast all day, but the weather held out and it was a beautiful evening, so we rushed home, she finished all her homework, and I loaded her bike onto the car. I packed a bag with some water and a couple snacks and we made our way to Lorimer Park. Before we took off down the trail, I wanted to take a selfie, but I was so excited that I forgot my helmet, so there are two selfies. As soon as I finished the picture she took off down the path. Fortunately I was able to catch up, phone in hand, to take a few pictures as we cruised down the trail. I am a mostly competent bike rider, but trying to pay attention to her, and the trail, and keep myself upright while holding my phone was tricky. So, I decided to take some video where, for the most part, I could rest my hand on the handlebars. She is so good a...

Visit from Nana and Poppy

To make sure she didn't forget about her parent's birthday's, Cheryl gave them their presents on the day of the baby shower. For her father, she got a nice webcam so that we could Skype with them to interact with Zoe. A few weeks ago we had done that for the first time and it actually worked out really well. So on Monday, April 2nd, Cheryl's parents came up from Florida to meet Zoe face to face for the first time. On one day Cheryl and Zoe went to Clark Park with Nana and Poppy. Later in the week Cheryl's sister Debbie came by with her daughters, Zoe's cousins, Ashlee and Taylor. Just before they left, Cheryl remembered to take a picture. Here's Zoe with her cousin Taylor. As always, you can find all of these pictures and more in Zoe's Set on Flickr.
