Road Trip! Over Memorial Day weekend, Lincoln and I took a road trip to Palm Springs. My Dad and Caroline were vacationing with some friends; and they invited us to come over for a few days. Thanks so much for letting us "crash" your vacation. We had a blast. And thank you to Mark and Lori for opening up your home to us, and for the yummy wine!!
It is summer in the desert, so we spent most of our time swimming. Lincoln gets better and better each time he's in the water. Now instead of fighting us on wearing his sandles, it is his swimsuit. For some reason unknown to Ryan and I, he just hates wearing it. He kept it on long enough to snap the pic below. He only wants to wear his swimmer (swim diaper). Which, as of TODAY is no longer an option since we are potty trained now (pics to come soon)!!! So, it looks like we may have a skinny dipper on our hands! :)
Relaxing with Papa.
By the end of the two days we were there, Lincoln had mastered swimming around this little table all by himself; using the bench of course. But nevertheless he went around and around the table completely under water!
Target practice. He did manage to hit the can a time or two.
Cheesin it at the pool with Granny and Papa
At The Living Desert Zoo in Palm Springs. Lincoln told us before we went in that he was going to see a rhino, a hippo, a giraffe... he listed quite a few. It was so cute. This zoo is a zoo of desert animals, so the only animal he saw on his list was the giraffe. He didn't seem to mind.
Walking to the Big Horn Sheep mountain with Papa and Granny
He didn't want to have his picture taken, so he was pretending to sleep.
His eyes got irritated about this time, I think from dust or dirt or something. But for the rest of the time at the zoo he was rubbing them, and they were red.
checking out the Big Horn Sheep getting a drink
Petting the goats. He thought they were funny.
He got right down in this guys face and said "Hello Cow". I think because of his coloring?
More time in the pool.
Very tired after a big day at the zoo and swimming.
Running in the open grassy area in back of the house.
Beautiful view out back
Running with Granny
What a day! So tired... asleep on Papa
What a fun trip! Thanks again to Dad and Caroline, Penny and David, and Mark and Lori for including us in their vacation.
