Ft. Worth Zoo Day

the 26th -- We hung around the house this morning and then got dressed to go meet cousin Colty. I could not wait to see my baby fall in love with his baby cousin. Parker did so well holding him! For just a minute, I wanted him to be a big brother, and soon, and then I came to my senses! Haha. We are definitely all in love with this sweet little man.





Since Parker had either been cooped up in the hospital or the house, I thought it would be fun to take him to the Ft. Worth zoo. It's so close to Sarabeth's house and is ranked as one of the top 5 zoos in the nation. I LOVE THIS ZOO. Oh my gosh, I fell in love as soon as we entered! Parker and I had a wonderful time exploring with Papa and Grana. After grabbing lunch and a stuffed elephant souvenir we were headed home to take a much needed nap.









It came as a huge surprise to me that Sarabeth and Justin would need a little backup tonight. Sarabeth wasn't feeling great and both she and Justin needed some rest before being sent home. I headed up to the hospital after putting Parker to bed and was placed on "hold Colt duty". Rough job! I curled up in a chair and tried to snooze while holding my newest sweet nephew. As much as I didn't love losing sleep, I did love soaking up these moments with him and having a brand new baby on my chest. Best feeling ever! SB and J, thanks for trusting me with your new man.
