We have passes to the Dallas Zoo and absolutely LOVE spending the day there. Ains wakes up every morning and the first thing she asks is if she can go to the zoo. We have taught Aiden and Ains if they want something to say, “May I ________ please?” So every morning it is… “May I go to the zoo please?!”
The cutest :).
I loved looking back through the pictures that I grabbed when we went last week. I can actually see through photos how much these three missed Chris while he was gone. He has been traveling for work since he got back from AB so this was the first week we really got to enjoy him being here!
When I used to teach there was this precious little guy that I taught at my school and then he would come over to A Little Artsy for after-school art and I would teach him again. His life-love was cars. I mean seriously he carried as many as he could in his pockets, he wanted to draw them, talk about them…you get the idea ;)….anyways for Aiden, that is animals. Reptiles, sharks, snakes…you name it, he loves it, wants to learn about it, own it, hold it, watch it.
So the zoo is his heaven :).
side note- Ainsleigh’s hair is getting curly! Be still my heart!
aiden reminds me a bit of my jonas. so much love for animals! they are soft souls those little children.
xo
aw that is so sweet 🙂 they truly are such soft souls!!! hugs friend!
You should try to get your daughter into modeling! She has an adorable face.

you are so sweet 🙂 thank you
I love Aiden's little tongue sticking out. My Gunner does the same thing when he's really focused.
We LOVE the Dallas zoo too.
aw Aiden has done that since he was so tiny!!! and Apple does it too!! You were on my heart the other day love, I hope all is well! xoxo
most precious family ever 🙂 i took my little bunny to the zoo last week for the first time and she loved it! but i think i loved it more because i was just so excited!!
aww that makes me smile! I cant tell you how many times i have wished we were neighbors so our girls could play!
i really want to take the kids to the zoo but i'm waiting for summer to be over because every time i've gone in the summer to the l.a zoo all the animals are panting in the shade because it's so hot haha. i prefer the san diego one because there is always a breeze so the animals are usually more active but my husband says that the kids will start with their specific demands soon enough so to stick with l.a for now lol
I LOVE the san diego zoo!!! we just went when I was out there this summer!!!!
So glad I'm not the only one who has taught her kids to say "May I…"
Manners are so important and so forgotten these days it seems!
aw it truly is so important!!!
Awesome! It's funny how kids are naturally drawn to things…Each of my four boys has had a different obsession in their toddler years. #4 is FULLY TRACTORS-and it just cracks us up b/c it is so clearly his own thing.
All of you are beautiful!
that is the cutest ever my friend!!!
My son's life love is cars too. He is constantly turning everything in the house into a car. He drives clothes baskets, remotes, phone books, you name it, he drives it.
I saw that curly hair…just adorable!
ahhhh LOVE!!!!!
what an amazing adventure. it looks like you guys had a fabulous time! i wish we could get to the zoo more often… it's just too hot in Miami. hopefully when it cools down we'll get a chance to go. i do wanted to ask you about your photos… they're amazing! how do you edit them?
You are so sweet thank you!!!! I use photoshop actions!!! This is my fav action set and you can download it for free!!

I LOVE the Dallas Zoo! So many fun memories there. I'm loving their little running shoes. I seriously can't wait to have kids, your blog makes me even more excited!
aw you just made me smile so big!!!
I love the Dallas Zoo. I love how it has evolved in the over 30 years I have lived here. I also like how some things are the same as it was when i was child a went there. My mister has been out of town and our three daughters and I miss him terribly.
have you fed the giraffes?? that is my favorite part!!
My husband and I are fanatical about animals. Would love to check out this place one day.
You will love it!!!
I love the zoo! I go every chance I get, even though I don't have the "excuse" of going for the kids. I just love seeing the animals, Aiden and I would be friends haha. You capture your little family so perfectly through pictures too. You can really tell how much your littles love you and daddy. Such a beautiful family!

I noticed her little curls immediately. 🙂 I love how you nurture each of your babies personalities and encourage them to blossom- it is one of the most inspiring qualities you have taught this first time mama.

I am a newbie blogger although have followed your blog for a while now…I found myself looking up cake pop recipes on Little Miss Momma, you had a guest post there about losing a baby which just met me at a perfect time and put into words a lot of feelings I had suppressed. I had 2 consecutive miscarriages a year before (and a 3rd gorgeous girl to follow) but had not really processed the loss or allowed myself the grief. I have loved your down to earth nature and honesty in your blog and wish you and your family all God's blessings as you touch people through your little space here.
While taking a break, I hopped on to see the beautiful Wiegands fam in action. I love your blog, it is so warm and inviting. So I'm perusing the photos and then I'm stopped dead in my tracks and find myself locked in a momentary trance…Aiden's eyes. They made my morning that much brighter. God bless you all.
