Crawling out of bed.

It is not an exaggeration to say that I spent the majority of last week in bed.

yuck.

The first week of November...gonzo.

And so, this is from the last bit of October.

We celebrated my grandfather's birthday in St. Louis.

(and below...the hotel. Arguably the kids FAVORITE part.)

Two blankets and one thumb.

And then, there was that sunny Friday in October when we snuck off to the zoo.

Roman was fascinated. He really really loved it all.

And we saw the new Polar Bear Plunge exhibit.

I think it was everyone's favorite.

Oh, the energy I had.

I am trying to get it back.
