London Zoo

Gorillas, lions, snakes, monkeys, giraffes, oh my! We met a lot of different creatures today at the London Zoo! Hudson's favorite part were the statues of the gorillas(maybe the real ones were a bit too big...) and Sienna's were the zebras and giraffes.

Huddy with one of his favs:)

This guy is no statue, and boy was he big!

For those who know her well, this says it all...



These monkeys roamed free in their area.... cute but scarey...



Hey there, Meerkats!

Who let those monkeys in here...??

Kraft Baby #3 Is On Its Way!

We announced today that our family is growing! Kraft baby #3 is on its way! Mommy and baby are doing great:) Hudson can't wait to be a big brother again and Sienna can't wait to be a big sister!!

Adventures in Legoland!!

This weekend we headed to Windsor for Legoland!! Of course, Windsor is also home to Windsor Castle, but there was no time for that when we had Legoland to explore! It was magical! Everything legos, and it was Star Wars invasion weekend! We did everything from rides to building with our own legos to watching pirate shows!

Only time for a quick walk-by picture of Windsor Castle

Bye, Grandma & Grandpa!

Sadly, Grandma and Grandpa's time with us has come to an end.... We had a great visit with them! I am so thankful to them for all of the help. I don't think I changed a diaper or washed a dish or made a meal for 10 days! The kids will miss them the most! See you back in the States in a month and a half!

Waving goodbye...

Stowaways....

As Grandma and Grandpa started packing, the kids decided they wanted to go with them! The kiddos were a little shocked at the realization that Grandma and Grandpa weren't staying in London with us and that they had to go home:( They first tried to pack themselves. When that didn't work, they seriously packed all their favorite toys into their little carry-on suitcases. They were ready to leave!



Packed and ready to go!

Happy Mum's Day!

Happy Mum's Day!! Yep, that's right, this year I get two mother's days! It was a beautiful Sunday to celebrate mums:) Our first stop was the Farmers Market down the road from us to get my mom some carrot cake she requested and some tulips to surprise her with! We headed to Buckingham Palace, a visit to the queen mum on mum's day:) Glad I could spend the day with my kids and my wonderful mom!

Tulips for my mom and chocolates for me:)

Yep, we are still finding Easter eggs!

No lift, no problem. Hold on Huddy!

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Happy St. Patty's Day! The kids and Doug were decked in their green today! Todays adventure was St. Pauls. The biggest church in London and very very beautiful! Another big event of today was Doug and my big date night out! Not only our first date in a month and a half, but my first time being away from the kids at all in a month and a half! Wicked was a great show!
