1 Year, 9 Months, 2 Weeks, and 6 Days

Ruby & Charlotte are 1 year, 9 months, 2 weeks, and 6 days old today. We go to the zoo as often as the weather and our schedules permit now that we are members. I discovered that when I take Ruby & Charlotte for walks without the stroller through our neighborhood in the morning before it gets too hot, they take glorious naps after lunch. While it is a bit challenging to wrangle 2 toddlers on the loose, they listen well for the most part. Enjoy the photos!

They love to climb on benches at the zoo:

We bought a toddler water slide & pool that Charlotte likes, while Ruby is content to watch from the side and stick her hands in the spray:

Grandma Doreen & Uncle Connor arrived here for a visit (with lots of new toys) on Sunday and will be here until next Monday:
