Nashville Zoo


"Seriously?"

Finally got a smile for the camera.
Surprisingly, Graham wanted to ride in the stroller rather than walk.
Almost got a still shot of Graham and Lily sitting together.
If ever there is an older kid around, our son is in awe. He gets so tickled by them. You can see him laughing at the little girl.
This is what he thought of the goat in the petting zoo. This is usually what happens when he's unsure about something.

Side shot.

Yet another "almost" still shot of the two of them.

I realized that the animals weren't quite the draw for us. It was the people. Graham is so happy people-watching. I wonder where he gets that from?



School Days!

Graham loves the slide in his new classroom.

The garden center has also shown up on his daily activity sheet several times.
This was a new one for me. Puzzles. I couldn't believe that he was interested in them because they don't have wheels, they don't bounce, and they don't make noise.
Aren't these little chairs the cutest? Graham and his friends sit at the table for lunch these days.
Enjoying some music time with his water bottles.

Going shopping.

Graham got a new shopping cart today. This child loves to push toys with wheels. We've hit the jackpot here because he can throw toys in it and push them around.

Couldn't get a smile out of him when the camera was ready of course.
Who needs a swimsuit?"I love my new bucket and shovels Mrs. Pat gave me!" Thank you!



O'Neal family additionS!

Call us crazy but we knew we wanted pets and like children, when are you ever ready? We've rescued two golden retrievers from a rescue here in Nashville. We don't know much about them but think they are related (perhaps brother and sister or mother and son) and they've been malnourished so these are some of our before pictures.


We are in the process of renaming them Hank, the blond and Sweetie, the red. They are really sweet sweet dogs and Graham of course is so excited.


Hank has been the most interested in Graham. The perfect first day! Hank
