First Father's Day

This is actually how Chris' first Father's Day ended. We had a fun filled day. Chris got to sleep in, he cooked us breakfast (I offered). Then Zoey decided to take a morning nap. So we joined her. We all 3 got a full 2 hour nap!! It was the most awesome gift. Zoey gave her dad a stainless mug with her picture on it. I know Chris will cherish it forever. We decided to go check out the riverfront and the Nebraska / Iowa pedestrian bridge. Here is a photo of the bridge we walked. I thought it was alot longer, but it's not bad.

Here's Zoey and I actually on the bridge. It was really hot, but there was a nice bridge so it was tolerable.

At the base of bridge entry there is a water play area. They have fountains that go up and down and areas that have jumping water. It was definitely a hot attraction. We took Zoey in there. She loved getting wet and cooling off.


After our riverwalk trip we stopped down in the Old Market and had some drinks and food. Zoey brought her own snacks and ate them all! She is transitioning to regular food now. Many people told me how easy it would be once she got to this stage. Liars! It has been major stress for me. I want her to eat healthy, but to make things a little more mushy takes a creative intuition that I obviously don't have. I'm pretty sure I've failed at this more than I've succeeded. But I guess she's not starving and that's the most important part!
