Getting cultured in the Fort

With Brad being laid off so much this last year and me working only part-time, we have gotten a lot of "family time." It's not a bad thing, we have really enjoyed being together. We know this isn't going to last forever, so we're taking advantage of it while we can. We have a pass to the zoo, and we finally got to go for the first time this year last week. Ella liked it last year, but she is REALLY getting into it this year. It's so fun to see her get so excited about the little things. She has always been an animal lover, so this is the perfect place for her! She really liked the horses ("weesies"), and monkeys ("oo oo, aa aa's"), and the fish ("bloop bloops"). It was a perfect dayout and the animals were out in full force.




We also have went to the downtown library quite a bit this winter. That's a great place to go with children. There is a room in the children's area with everything from dress-up clothes, to puzzles and games, lots of books and toys, the list goes on. There's also an area with fish tanks as well as a few things to climb in and on. It's a lot of fun for Ella and gives her a place to run around when the weather's not cooperating.




Hopefully the weather's going to stay decent and we can give the library a little break for awhile! :)
