Another Day at the Zoo

It's a small zoo, but a zoo nonethe- less. Since Greyhawk Landing is somewhat considered "country living" we expected to see a little more "wildlife" then in the previous places we'd lived. After being in Florida for several years, we've come to expect seeing exotic birds like the Sandhill Crane families that roam around. Little did we know we would be sharing our new home with a family of deer. Apparently they live in the preserve behind our home and we've been fortunate enough to see them up close from our lanai. We've spotted (and heard) an owl and several falcons and hawks as well. Between the deer, the birds, the three Shih Tzus and cat next door, it's almost like a day at Wild Kingdom!

So today Shelley and Hayley ventured out for our first girls only shopping trip. Our store of choice, Target. Hayley had a grand old time... she slept through the whole thing. It was a good experience for Mommy though as I learned how the infant seats sit in the carts and it gave me more confidence in figuring out how to "shop" with a little one in tow. There is soooo much more to errand running with an infant then I ever imagined. Anyhow, I picked up a Bumbo for Hayley. She has such a desire to sit, that I thought for sure she would love the Bumbo. So far she really seems to be enjoying her new toy! She's been sitting contently in her Bumbo just looking around the room during awake time. Chloe seems to be enjoying the Bumbo as well... Hayley is right at her eye level now!
