First Sea World Trip of 2014

After our trip to Africa (which you can read about here), we headed to Sea World for the first time.  We were so blessed by all the sales they had on tickets this year!

The required dolphin pictures:

A ride on the carousel for the little 2:

Because of the endless winter we had, the splash pad was COLD!  Needless to say, we didn't stay long!

This girl keeps me on my toes!

This child tests me in ways her brothers never did!

For example, she insisted on wearing this school one day, breaking several of the dress code rules.  I made "parent of the year" that day, I'm sure.

She needed a drink, so this was the obvious solution.

If she's like this at 2, I'm not sure we will survive till 18!

Poppy's First Haircut

Poppy got her first haircut earlier this year!  She requested that her daddy take her.  She went in like this:

Her first haircut was so different from the boys, who cried through the whole thing.  She loved every minute of pampering at Great Clips!

And came back like this!

It was much easier to brush, but I was sad it was so short.  And those bangs are killing me as they grow out and are always in her face!
