Atlanta Zoo & Six Month Photos

Happy 4th of July weekend!!  I started the weekend off right by taking Friday off and spoiling my Godchildren, Charlie and Angelina, with a trip to the zoo for a VIP experience with the elephants.  We fed Kelly the elephant, watched the father-to-be tiger play in his pool (mommy tiger due with a cub in a couple weeks), enjoyed the pandas and gave lots of "yucks" at the reptile house.  Here are a few pictures:

Charlie knew so much about each animal!  He's so smart!

Kelly the ele' loved apples, watermelon and peaches! Charlie fed her many times.

Angelina was all girl... one feeding and she was done.

That's a face of someone having fun!? It was quite hairy!

 

Ryder was along for the ride.  He loves his cousins!

Ryder turned 6 months old on Monday, June 27th.  To say the past 6 months have gone by quickly would be a gross understatement.  Our world has changed in the most unimaginable way, and we could not be happier.  Ryder Louis is a great baby, and Eric and I are so proud to be his parents.  Here are some candid pictures and a couple from his photo shoot.  The photographer's pictures will be posted in about a week.

Lots of smiles until the photo session! Then he was Mr serious!

"Help mom- I can't sit that well yet!"

Great beverage tin from the Schreiber's!

Hopefully the photographer got the few smiles Ryder gave.
