Last night was crazy at our house. Sarah Wren's first birthday! We had not planned anything special, but we ended up having a great time. Desi came over to help decorate cupcakes. Elsa was also over and she and Savannah raced around, put sprinkles on the cupcakes and got Sarah Wren worked up. She was doing laps, chasing the older girls and Desi around the house. We all had cupcakes, Sarah Wren demolished her birthday cupcake. It was a festive and fun night.

Ahh....lovely weather today. Pat took the day off and we all went to the Reston Zoo. Mostly a petting zoo, also a few zebras, camels, monkeys and a huge yellow python. Savannah enjoyed feeding the sheep and the goats, especially the baby goats. We were not surprised when Savannah wanted to go on a pony ride, we were very surprised when she actually did it with no hesitation and she loved it. After the Zoo, everyone napped. Later in the evening I made cupcakes to take to daycare and Savannah learned all about cleaning up the batter bowl.
Yummy!

This weekend was the big bicycle assembly. I bought an unassembled Ariel Mermaid bike for Savannah's birthday. Patrick put it together (a painful job)and it is really cute! Savannah was excited about trying it out, but she tries to jump off the bike when she gets going too fast...
