spring break

the round rock library had a little petting zoo a few weeks ago, so we decided to give a whirl with some friends.  the last few times we've taken mae to things like this she doesn't go anywhere near the animals, so i was prepared to basically walk in and walk out.  but, she did great!

she was a little nervous about the baby chicks, so i held that one. (which, i'm glad because as the lady was passing them out she was like, if you hold them wrong or squeeze them too tight they'll be dead in the morning.)  but, she sat right next to me and pet the chick.  izzy wasn't really into it.

she went into the little pen with the goats and pet the goat.  there were also bunnies and ducks, and she pet all of those as well.  i was really proud of her!

they had some cute little games, and photo props after.  she was most excited about taking her picture.

and of course, you can't go into downtown round rock without getting a round rock donut!  this place is always busy.  and it's delicious.  mae without fail no matter what donut place we go to, will get a pink frosted donut with sprinkles on it.  

and my human garbage disposal will eat anything.  the donut holes were perfect izzy sized bites.  

spring in texas means the blue bonnets are out.  i feel like they aren't as good this year as they have been in the past.  but, we still found some to take our picture with.  this is in front of the grocery store.  i love driving down roads and seeing fields of them.

 mae loves them.  she picked a bunch and we came home and put them in water.  and when those died, we had to go pick more.

 a girl in her element.
