Friends and Outings

Zoo Atlanta
We took Tita, Tito, Lolo, and Lola to playgroup at the zoo. The toddler friends love holding hands and walking wherever they happen to be headed (and, when directed by the adults, looking at the animals). The zoo is a great place to give the kids somewhat-free rein to roam.

Avondale Estates Park
Gabi loves picnics, so we took Lolo and Lola to Avondale Estates Playground for lunch one day after school.

Dolls
Gabriella is a good Mommy to her dolls. She especially likes to have a doll to care for when I am holding or feeding Annabelle. Gabi even has a nightgown that matches one of Asha's outfits!

Friends for Mommy, too
We went to Ted's Montana Grill for my birthday dinner. Earlier in the day, when Gabi heard us mention the place, Gabi said, "The bison restaurant is very good!"

We met Susan for lunch while she was in town for work with an off-Broadway tour from New York!
