Gideon's Haircut

Has anyone told you I really dislike having my hair cut?

 Daddy gives me a lollipop, but even so...

Luckily, Zula finds it very relaxing...

Zula's 100th Day of School

I don't know what Mommy's been doing, but this post somehow got lost in the shuffle.

Back in February, Zula celebrated her 100th day of school. Daddy and I got to hear her read to her friend Lucca.

Lucca read to Zula, too. They both got to wear their pajamas!

Then it was time to count 100 snacks, by tens. We started with M&Ms.

It was so nice of Ms. Hyche to let me count, too!

Then it was time to count marshmallows...

Here's Zula showing off her snack bag.

Later, Ms. Hyche read a story. Even teachers can wear their pajamas on the 100th day!

And finally, the biggest honor. Guess whose turn it was to do the calendar on the 100th day!

Theodore Roosevelt Island

On Friday Grandpa took us to one of his favorite places: Theodore Roosevelt Island, which is in the middle of the Potomac River.

In the middle is a big statue of Roosevelt. Wait, who's that on his foot?

Is that my big sister all the way up there?

She really can climb anything...

...and she likes to find new places to hide.

Beyond the plaza, we found some trails leading down to the river.

There was lots of mud down there...

Cold, squishy river mud, anyone?

Eventually Mommy had to save me from myself.
