HopeKids

At Little M's birthday party a friend mentioned the HopeKids organization and told me we needed to get involved.  So I signed us up and found out more info.

It's an organization for families with rock star kids like Little M.  Kids that have different medical conditions and different abilities.  They organize different events and invite these families.  The events are free.  Which is great because when you have a rock star kid, funds tend to be depleated.  It also gives us a chance to meet other kids with the same diagnosis as Little M. 

We happened to sign up just in time for Dream Night at the Zoo.  I already had a good feeling about this group, but once I met the director, I knew they were awesome!

We got to the zoo at about closing time.  The HopeKids group just had to wear a wristband and in we went.  Dinner was provided from Chik.fil.a.  And we got to wander around and look at the animals.  The best part was since it was evening, it was cooler and the animals were more active.

We got to see the new part of the zoo with the new polar bear, brown bears, sea otters, seals, and sea lions.  Little M had a blast!  Mr. Temmie and I did too.

It was a nice little night out for our family.

Big kid has to push his own stroller now.

See what I mean!!!  No more baby face!!

He was certain he didn't like cotton candy.

Captain Blue Beard!

And I'm working on getting rid of the binki.  But we had Hand Foot and Mouth disease last week so we relapsed a little.
