Long Weekend

So far we've been enjoying our long holiday weekend. Yard work was the order of the day on Saturday (Emerson even pitched in & helped). Yesterday we went to the Como Zoo where Emerson claimed her favorite animal of day was the tiger. On a related note, I realize the Como Zoo is the Twin Cities "free" zoo, but c'mon people, the donation bins are at the entrance for a reason. I can't stand it when a family of 13 waltzes right in without so much as thinking about tossing in a buck or two. I probably already pay for your groceries, I'm not that excited about paying for your entertainment expenses as well. Sorry, I just remembered this blog was about Emerson. She was oblivious to the non-donating patrons yesterday.
We're also in pseudo potty training mode this weekend. Emerson blew through about 9 pairs of underwear on Saturday. Sooner than later she'll get it.

Good luck on the potty training! She'll pick it up in no time at all, and saving on the expense of diapers is wonderful! Then you can afford to pay for all those people's entertainment!

Hey Em! You'll need to show your cousins around Como Zoo one of these days. And we'll even pay the donation at the entrance. :)
