He's a cute penguin. It looks like he is giving a dramatic stage performance in the picture.

Chilly Willy is wildly popular in our house - mostly because it was my high school nickname. The Little Man has seen every episode (thanks to the internet). Great costume.

He is definitely ready for his standing ovation. How cute!

Just stopped by via WW :)

We can't so much as get our oldest to be in front of a camera anymore, so I'm impressed you even managed these 'candid' shots!

I hope she gets into it - at least it'll be a positive to doing all that
hard work - when I can't worm my way out of it of course.

Actually yes - although unfortunately my wife does read the blog so sadly
I'm sure her memory will be jogged.

It IS fun - even more so when you realize that decades from now you'll
probably forget they were all staged in the first place...

Thanks! And she'll definitely be the one cleaning up those leaves - that was
one of the bullet points on the pro's list for having kids... :)

Hilarious...I imagine I'll use that 'get out of work' tip when my daughter is old enough! Good Stuff!

heh.

Maybe she'll be more into when she gets older? I loved playing in leaves when I was about 7 or 8.

Cute.....did you get out of the yard work?

Re: Why So Serious? (about Diaper Bags)

Impresive description , I felt joy and positive while I read your article especially during the first to the second part. I too would like to share my fun experience when it comes to diaper bags. My husband was taking the baby out one day and mistaked my purse as the diaper bag, well imagine his surprise when he was without diapers and our baby did a stinky right in the middle of his luncheon. I decided I was going to get him his own personal diaper bag with a "masculine" appeal so I found an awesome one at http://www.babydirect.com He'll never again take my purse when he's on baby duty! Just thought I'd share my hee hee story with your readers.

I think BOTH stories are equally entertaining! Love the "candid" shot! When she gets older and realizes the fun, she'll do it until she's the one cleaning up the mess....

Re: If The Shoe Fits…

LOL...Before I retired from the Navy, I had seven pairs of shoes (two flight deck boots, one pair of running shoes, my two uniform dress shoes, and one pair of heel for the one Christmas party a year we went to). NOW, I've driven The Man crazy! I have no less than three dozen shoes...*sigh Never thought I'd turn into a girly girl...

It has started with "Up" and you never know where it's going to lead you. Congrats to your daughter for getting her point across, or up as the case may be.

I think you're right, but I also think that if that glass weren't there, she'd walk right up and pat them on the head. For better or worse. :)

Re: Make Nice. Nice Kitty?

SurprisedMom — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 21:46:50 -0000

She's such a cutie. But, unfortunately, I don't think the lions would appreciate her cuteness. It does sound like a good day at the zoo. I'm glad some of the animals were cooperating.

Re: Make Nice. Nice Kitty?

mwfrantz — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 21:58:01 -0000

I must admit though, with the way the lion enclosure is set up, I have considered pitching pine cones in there in hopes of giving folks watching a fright... just a fright though, not a maul.

Re: Make Nice. Nice Kitty?

mwfrantz — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 21:56:08 -0000

Every time we go to the zoo it's been a different experience - you just never know which animals are going to be out and about. Although it's usually a safe bet the big cats will be sleeping...

Thanks!

What a hilarious retelling of your trip to the zoo. I have a trip to my zoo (Houston Zoo) on Sunday and I can't wait as it has been almost 4 months since I was last there to enjoy it with the animals. My trip since then was just the wedding reception and there were very few animals there for that.

I'm hoping we have a good experience and can maybe see a few animals awake and doing something but you never know what you will find at the zoo.
