Our First Safari

We went on our first safari this weekend to the Nairobi National Park. It was only 45 minutes away from our house(without traffic). We got up somewhat early, around 6:30 am and arrived at the park around 8 am. It was a long day in the car for the kids, but all in all, it was a great trip and we got to see lots of animals. There were lots of zebras and girafffes as well as ostrich, peacocks, gazelle, wildebeasts, crocodiles, warthogs and all sorts of different birds. Our only disappointment was not getting to see any lions or tigers. Supposedly you have to get up before 6 am to see those. Maybe next time.

Chase with Zebras behind him crossing the road and Hannah with a Giraffe.

A beautiful view of the park. It is hard to believe that downtown Nairobi is only 30 minutes away.

Yo Gabba Gabba!

Ok..so if you have seen this strange show, Yo Gabba Gabba on Nick Jr., then you know. Its freaky! However, my sweet child is addicted to it and I can not help but let her watch every now and then. She likes it so much, I decided to make her these no sew dolls for her to play with and they are pictured below. IF you want to see how freaky this show really is, go to the site........and you will see. How are you to deny your child when they ask for it when they wake up, all day long and when they go to bed? I am convinced it is just because she loves the dancing and likes to say, Gabba Gabba. :) You decide....
