Quotable Quotes from Xavier

While Curtis and I were in Las Vegas, Xavier stayed with his Grandmama and Granddaddy and his Mema.

The first day we were gone, Xavier was playing with his Grandmama. The Browns have an old gumball machine in their entryway, and Xavier wanted to play with the "balls" that were inside. Being quite the sorter, Xavier started organizing the gumballs.

He looked at a group of them and said, "Grandmama, those colorful balls make a triangle."

So smart!

A Visit To Riverbanks

On Thursday, I took Xavier back to the zoo. During our first trip there a few weeks ago, a lot of the big animals were not outside, so I wanted to go back to check them out. Xavier seems to really enjoy the animals, especially the birds. Sometimes, though, I think he enjoys people watching at the zoo more than animal watching.

Here he is grinning at me in front of the elephants.




Xavier has a jungle themed room, so I was trying to explain to him that these are the real animals, like the ones on his dresser, on his blanket, etc. I'm sure he understood every word I said!


The littliest giraffe was getting some food off the ground - too cute!

The King of the Jungle . . . the lion.



Here is Xavier eating a well deserved snack - green grapes - after a morning of walking and riding around the zoo. I guess that one was a little sour!


All in all, it was a good trip. Xavier was good, as always, and the weather was perfect. I enjoy the zoo too, as most of you know, so it was a fun time for all!
