With the gators

We let Lydia hang out with some alligators in NC. One of the days we were there we went to the NC Aquarium on Roanoke Island since we got in free because of our zoo membership. She liked the fish and turtles, but we aren't sure if she could pick out any of the live alligators.

Out of order

I never posted any Easter pictures, but here is one of my favorite pictures of Lydia on her second Easter.

Lydia hits the beach

We went to NC for Doug's week off and headed first to the Outer Banks for a few days. Lydia loved the beach even though the water was too cold to swim in. She had a great time playing in the sand, chasing birds, walking and getting her feet wet.

Lydia, until a few weeks ago, would eat anything and in large quantities. She has started to get a little more picky and will shake her head "no!" if you try to give her something she doesn't want. Her main favorites of the last 2 weeks are bananas and hard boiled egg. No more cottage cheese loving!
