Welcome to November! We had to turn on the heat in the house for the first time this year! We don’t have a giant oxygen concentrator or mist machine putting out tons of heat so the living room was getting chilly!
It was beautiful today, so Trevor got to go on an outing to the zoo. Our friend Michelle joined us for a nice walk around, it was good to have some company! We went a different way than Trevor’s “usual” route this time. He got to see the big lion. Of course the lion was looking straight at us until I lifted my camera!

After seeing giraffes, a rhino, some warthogs, and an assortment of birds (including his favorite grackles), we ended up back in the monkey garden

He also got his first ride on a carousel, he selected the giant eagle

We thought Brendan’s Halloween shirt was appropriate to wear to the zoo

Haha, Michelle might have thought she escaped being in pictures, but we caught her in the background 🙂

Brendan took an early nap while Trevor was away. Despite letting Trevor walk all over the zoo, he took a super short nap! We tried our best to take it easy this afternoon

Both boys were in bed by 8:15pm tonight!! Miraculous! Brendan is “Space Police” with a police onesie and outer space pajama pants.

Trevor is practicing using a blanket in bed.

We survived the first week of the terrible twos!





It looks like you had a beautiful day for the zoo! It rained here and never made it out of the 4o’s!
I like Trevor in Brendan’s shirt, and it really was appropriate for the zoo. I’m sure he didn’t bite anyone or anything! 🙂
I see Brendan was doing his physical therapy climbing again! He’s determined to get up on everything…and over it if possible.
Looks like you had two tired little boys. I hope you get some rest, too, since it is no-nurse night at your house.
Lots of love and hugs,

🙂 🙂 That’s no “dumb Lion”……he’s learned that when humans raise their hands to their faces, with that “boxy thing” in them, POOF!!! blinding white light ! 🙂 🙂
” we caught her in the background ”
That has got to be the biggest “umbrella hat” I’ve ever seen !! 😮 🙂 🙂
Trevor’s trip to the zoo looks like a lot of fun and he looks like he is having a great ride on the big eagle. Brendan just needs to climb, he is just so funny. Two at two will keep you hopping each and every day for how long no one knows. There is nothing more sweet than sleeping babies and they just look like sweet little angels.
