Wilderness Safari

On Saturday, we went to Gentry, AR.  There is a Wild Wilderness Drive-thru Safari with animals galore.  We all had so much fun.

Reagan and I got to ride a camel
Jason & Reese got to hold a large snake
We saw baby monkeys too.  In this area, there were some really loud birds, which is why Reagan is covering her ears.  She hates loud noises.
Jason fed this camel and the other one tried to come get some too.  But, the first one was not willing to share.  She started going after #2's neck.  Then she followed us down the length of fence.  I think she thought Jason was cute!
Zebra??
All of the following pictures were taken from our car during the drive-thru portion.  It was pretty amazing to be so close to these animals.

Easter Egg Hunt

On Easter weekend, we found a huge Easter Egg Hunt going on in Rogers, AR, just minutes from Fayetteville. So, we headed over to check it out. There were over 600 kids there. Reagan was in the 0-3 group, and she was very excited as she waited with her Daddy to get started. They blew the whistle, Reagan started to pick up eggs, then she was quickly over taken by the bigger, older kiddos. The whole hunt lasted about 30 seconds. She got 5 eggs. To quote Reagan, "Those big kids are too fast!"

Observing the Easter Bunny from a distance . . .a little bit closer . . ."That's close enough, Daddy!"

Reagan & Evan
As usual, Reagan and Evan had a ball! They blew bubbles inside, bubbles outside, played at the park, etc. They always play so hard and laugh so much. What fun!!

Family Walk in the West Texas Wind

We walked around the golf course one day while the wind whistled around us. It was not kind to the Ramsey clan. We all came in with runny noses and itchy eyes. Poor Reagan's red, watery eyes

Anatomy Lesson

Potty training has been going great!!  And, along with all this potty time has come body questions.

Scene 1
Reagan: "I wiped my tushie!"
Mommy: "Honey, that's not your tushie.  Your tushie is in the back."
Reagan: "Then, what's this called?"
Mommy:  uh, oh, what do we call it? "That's your va-jay-jay."
Reagan: "My jay-jay?"

Scene 2 - Five minutes after tee-teeing in the potty and climbing in bed
Reagan: "I need to go potty!"
Daddy: "OK, let's go."
Mommy: "Honey, you just went.  Are you sure?"
Reagan: "Yes, I need to go tee-tee."
After sitting on the potty for several minutes
Reagan: "You're right.  There's no more tee-tee in my jay-jay."

Scene 3 - Jason had just gotten out of the shower and was wrapping himself in a towel when Reagan walked in
Reagan:  pointing at his towel, "Whatcha' got back there, Daddy?  Is that your jay-jay?"
Daddy: I'm not ready to have this talk with my 2 year old daughter. "No, sugar, boys don't have jay-jays."
Reagan: "What do boys have?"
Daddy: "Boys have pee-pees."

Scene 4 - while sitting on the potty
Reagan:  "What do boys have?"
Mommy:  "What do you mean?"
Reagan:  "Girls have a jay-jay.  What do boys have?"
Mommy:  ummmmm "Boys have a pee-pee." 
Reagan:  "Daddy has a pee-pee!"
Mommy: "Yes, he does.  What do you have?"
Reagan: "A jay-jay!  And, you have a jay-jay, and Reese has a jay-jay! "
She proceeded to go through all of our family and friends and tell me who had jay-jays and who had pee-pees.  If you are reading this and wondering if you were covered . . . yes, we covered everyone!

Be back soon!

New posts will be coming soon.  The past month has been pretty busy.  We were in Texas for a week, back for a few days, then on to Fayetteville for several weeks - where we currently are.  And, of course,  I packed everything I thought we could ever possibly need, but failed to pack the camera memory card adapter to upload pics to the laptop.  I'll pick it up next weekend, and do my best to get some actual posts on here again soon.
