Friday: Kyle was wonderful to offer to study at home while Kambryn slept so that I could take Jantsen and his two best buddies Lexi and Dylan to the zoo. Lexi and Dylan are such great kids so it was pretty easy being the supervisor for these little curious minds.
One quick story: While we were in the Rainforest Jungle area, the kids were loving running and walking around. Lexi was pointing out all the birds while Jantsen and Dylan were driving their cars everywhere. Well there happened to be this one little exotic bird (no idea what kind of bird it was) that started following us through the entire jungle area! No joke this little bird jumped and hopped and flew by our heads and looked at the kids almost for the half hour we were in there. The bird and the three kids were so amazed by eachother. We had our little pet that followed us everywhere. Cute little Lexi decided to ask it his name...I said it was "Sparky" but oh no that was no name for a bird. Lexi quickly informed me that his name was "Mumbles". So for about 30 minutes we had "Mumbles" our pet bird following us everywhere! It really was the strangest thing that I have ever seen a bird do. However, the kids absolutely LOVED it!!
The 2 videos are: first encounter of "Mumbles" while the kids are dancing and also of "Mumbles" just about to be named by Lexi. I love this age and Lexi and Dylan are the cutest little friends for Jantsen. They were exhausted by the time we left 2 1/2 hours later BUT what fun it was at the zoo!! (again to turn off my music to hear the videos, go to bottom of page and pause my playlist)
Oh and a few notes, first of all, all three of the kids were holding hands but right as I took the picture, Lexi pulled her hand away. But it is okay if Jantsen and Dylan are holding hands right?! ha! I also didn't pose the kids on the lions, they all climbed on one of them and I took their picture. Anyways, it is fun to watch the innocence and excitement of 3 year olds!
Saturday: We found a few ways to entertain Jantsen this morning. Who would have thought that a jumprope and the kitchen floor would turn into so much fun. I think his squeels of excitement is what cracks me up the most! And also Jantsen in Kambryn's carseat? What a ride it was for him! And it was totally his idea from the start! I swung him a few times before we filmed it so this last time he was feeling alittle sick, but we made him do it anyway. He is totally up for anything different and fun!

So fun, thanks for taking Lexi to the Zoo. It is always fun for her to get out and do fun things with her favorite friends that she talks non stop about. She also was completely warn out when she got home. So again thanks. I will take them next time so you can have a little break:)
Thank goodness you are so popular! I just saw someone else that I know that is on your friend list. Lisa and Adam Stanley were in our first married ward in Sandy. I was actually friends with Lisa's older sis in high school but you guys probably figured that out because Kyle was friends with her older bro in high school. Anyway, just thought that was funny and I did finally add to my blog so check in out and leave a comment! Hopefully soon we will get the attachment we need to post videos cause Eme is doing some funny things lately! Lov ya!
