We celebrated our first Mother's Day at the Zoo on Sunday. We probably tried to do too much, but we still had fun. We got a wheelchair for Virginia this time, so she didn't get worn out walking all over the place.
Robin is developing so fast! (sniff) He's rolling over easily in both directions now, and will do each several times while playing. Most of the time when I go to take him out of his crib, I find him on his stomach (and he always goes down on his back.) I'm expecting him to crawl very soon. Currently he pushes himself up on his arms and then slides backwards. I don't think he quite realizes that he could control where he goes, since he pushes himself away from his toys and then fusses about it. Pretty soon, though, he'll get those knees under him and then Look Out! We're somewhat babyproofed... although the biggest issue is keeping the living room clean (since excess stuff on the floor isn't necessarily safe.)
On my birthday we went to Cherry Creek reservior with one of my friends and her kids (ages 3 and 1.) Robin got his first taste of the beach. He kept pulling his feet out of the water when I dipped them in (I guess the water was too cold.) I was amazed at how many bugs there were. We thought they were mosquitos, but since neither Robin nor I came away with any bites, they must've been something else. It was nice to get out and spend some time with other people.

I didn't think there would be a new post today as I know your plans. What a surprise! As busy as you are you posted anyway. WooHoo! Cute photos. Robin is such a delight.
