When Daddy flew back into town, we decided we should do something extra fun & special with him. So...we went to the safari park. It was so much fun. You can see here I am just giddy with excitement about feeding this crazy looking cow.
Mom said she thought all that animal tongue & saliva was a little too much for her. But, my grandma is so brave, she did it anyway!
So, how many of you can say you've touched a giraffe's head??
Sophie gets an up-close look. (I hope you notice she isn't quite touching him.)
Here Opa is holding me in front of a family of meerkats.
On Tuesday morning, before Opa & Grandma's flight back to Texas, we decided to go out to eat at the Original Pancake House. Mom says she is never sure whether to be impressed or a little scared when Sophie is wielding her fork & knife like this.
Saturday morning, we went to one of our favorite places...Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens!! Aren't we a good looking bunch?? 
Grandma & I wave from the bridge.
Mommy says it is naughty to put our feet into the water, but I think it is a whole lot of fun. I am just glad both Daddy & Grandma like to break rules.
This weekend we drove up to see Uncle Neil & Aunt Rebecca in Delaware. This is Uncle Neil & Daddy at a posh restaurant in Philadelphia called "Pod."
Here is Kate inside of the play mansion. The top floor had dolls, doll houses, blocks, & some other toys. The ground floor had a train and a couple of little play houses. The basement was full of ride on toys.
The cool thing is we happened to be there on the 110th birthday! So, we got free birthday cake & water ice. There were also face painters, balloon animal makers, bubbles, and free tattoos. Here you see Sophie befriending the Rita's water ice guy.
After all that exertion, we needed some food. So, we went to a pizza place called "Mix." It was so delicious!! Here's Sophie patiently waiting her piece of pizza.
Saturday afternoon we went swimming at some friends of Uncle Neil & Aunt Rebecca's. They were on vacation, so we had the pool to ourselves. Here Kate & Daddy squeeze in a nap.
You just never know who you might bump into when you're in downtown Belmont.
I told Micah it was a mistake to ask one of these two jokers to pour him a glass of orange juice. 
This weekend we got new bunk beds! Our new beds came from our friends the Mulls. They are very exciting & we love to sleep in them. Here you can see Sophie plotting some mischief.
Aha! That's what it was - a visit from the tickle monster!
All worn out & time to go to sleep. 
Passed! (They got extra points for giving a free cookie to a cute little girl with a pink polka-dot dress.)
We went on a walk through the River Arts District. Being in all those galleries inspired Daddy to do some creative photography.
