Zoo with Asher

About a month ago I met a girl (Sidney) who lives in our apartment complex. She has a little boy named Asher who is 11 months old. We actually met them at one of Brian's soccer games. Her boyfriend was on the team Brian was playing against.

Sidney and I have met a few times at the apartment pool and today we took the kids to the zoo.


The stork kept flying around ...


Like the Knoxville Zoo, the Nashville Zoo has some red pandas ...


The flamingos were super vocal today ...


When we got home, Carter pulled out our arts and crafts box and got creative ...


One thing he did was glue beads of the same color next to one another ...


Carter is all about symmetry and matching. When he builds things with Legos, he makes random structures that are symmetrical. If he has enough Legos, even the colors are symmetrical.

Carter's art from school was pretty neat yesterday. Besides focusing on the letter A this week, the kids were also talking about their families.


So the kids looked through magazines with the teachers to find pictures of people that resembled their family. Here are the pictures Carter found ...



We got these stapled to the kids' bags ...


I hope I don't regret it someday, but I think I'm going to save $42 and take my own pictures of Carter.
