The Piersons Come to Visit!

Gracie and Christopher took turns holding little Laurel.Aunt Jenny got a turn to bond with Laurel, too.
We went to see Mike the Tiger at LSU, who was sleeping again. It was a gorgeous day and Gracie loved pushing Laurel in her stroller around Mike's cage.

Christopher finally got his turn to push the stroller, and was adamant that he do it himself!

Laurel followed in Mike's footsteps by snoozing through our visit again!

Christopher got a close-up look into this tiger's mouth, with a little help from his Uncle Trey!

Jenny brought Gracie and Christopher over on a Sunday afternoon for a visit. Gracie and Christopher were so excited to see Laurel and took turns holding her. Since it was such a pretty day, we decided to check on LSU's Mike the Tiger again. He's been a big hit with his visitors, jumping in his pool and playing with a ball. But when we got there, Mike was sleeping in the shade again!

Gracie and Christopher took turns pushing Laurel's stroller around Mike's cage, and did a great job. Laurel slept through most of our visit. After the Piersons left, Trey and I walked around the LSU campus with Laurel and got to sneak a peek at the new LSU Academic Center for Student Athletes. (I don't think it's open to the public, but it was really cool)
