Fun in the Sun!

We have been out enjoying the sunshine and warm weather lately.  Riley absolutely loves to play in the water and was really excited when we stopped by the play fountains near our house.  It was kind of an impromptu visit, so we weren't exactly dressed for water play, but Riley could have cared less.  She was soaking wet and loved every second of it!
Since Gigi and Popdaddy's pool wasn't quite ready for swimming, we took Roo to the pool in our neighborhood last weekend.  It's been a while since she has been in a pool, but we were amazed at how comfortable she is in the water.  She loves to float on her belly and kick her feet and she will also jump in from the side. 
When it's hot out, it's the best time to enjoy one of Riley's favorite treats, ice cream.  Riley and I went to the zoo on Tuesday and she got to have a vanilla ice cream cone while we checked out all of the animals. 
She was feeling particularly brave that day and decided that she not only wanted to ride the train, but the carousel too. It was a first for her to get on and actually ride one of the animals. It was a tough decision, but she settled on a polar bear for her inagural ride, despite the look on her face she did actually like it.
She also was very excited about getting up close and personal with an actual polar bear
We finished our visit with a little rock climbing after checking out her favorite animal of the day, the new baby giraffe named Cricket.
