Rings at the Palm Beach Zoo Part 1

The Rings took the morning away from the beach and went to the Palm Beach Zoo. Not the biggest zoo in the world but it's laid out great and it's not depressing like the concrete jungle that is the Dallas Zoo. Turner had a good time but I think of all the animals he liked the plastic ones on the merry-go-round the best.

Rings in Florida

Here are some pictures of us at the hotel in Florida. Turn's having a great time! There's a water slide at the hotel that is pretty fast and Turner went under the water and came up coughing a few times. But man, did he love it. More pictures to come...

The bun in the oven.

Ashley is growing a baby in here belly and we have the pictures to prove it. It's always so much fun to see these little things that are 2 inches long with (thankfully) five fingers, five toes, brain, beating heart, etc. You might or might not know but Ash and I aren't going to find out the sex of the baby. With Turner, hearing the doctor say "It's a boy!" was such an unbelievable moment. One that I'll never forget. I think I'm going to have to change the name of the blog at some point though...

Turner can spell R-O-C-K-E-T and look cute.

New Season=New Pictures

Turner's blog is becoming more like a quarterly. I think I'm averaging about a post per season. I think that'll change pretty soon. So here's the Summer post. I hope everyone is doing well!

Recent Pics

Here are some recent pics. Some of Chris and Michele's son, Dillon, and also one with Colin and Shannon's kiddo, Harper.

Turner watching Word World

Times they are a changin'. When I was a kid I watched cartoons. Classics. Bugs Bunny was my favorite. Slapstick awesomeness. I guess the closest thing to that type of nonsense slapstick nowadays would be SpongeBob? SpongeBob is ok but it's no Bugs or Froghorn Leghorn. I recently read an article that said the average 2 year-old watches an average of 2 hours of t.v. a day. But todler television is much different than it used to be. Now kids are leaning about colors, letters, words, numbers and just about everything else.

One of those shows is Word World. It's on PBS. Crisp, professional computer animation in which a fun loving and lovable dog would literally be made out of the letters D-O-G. They sing silly songs and teach things like vowels and rhyming. It's great. Anyway, this is Turner watching the D-O-G dance around as he plays a D-R-U-M . He digs it (as you can tell).
