Providence, RI ~ the biggest little state in the union...

Well here we are...Providence, RI!!! We came to town in the sunshine, and left in the sunshine...but unfortunately, we saw a lot of snow and rain while we were here...
Zeek gets a sneak preview of the Providence Children's Museum...he had it all to himself before the Family Teams/NICU reunion kickoff began!
The local RI Ambassador triplets with their parents give the Taylor's a warm welcome to RI and the Children's Museum!
Zeek and a local 'mini-walker' roll up their sleeves and dive into the "Waterworks" exhibit.
Zeek really understands the concept of how a dam works after this session...
Local sponsor CVS Pharmacy~Charitable Trust...donates $105K to continue funding for the NICU Family Support program to operate until 2010...keep up the good work CVS!!!
Zeek and Betty speak to a room full of nurses and doctors at the Hasbro Children's Hospital for their annual WalkAmerica Kickoff...Myra Edens, RN, Director of Nursing at Hasbro presents Zeek with a pin. Zeek made some fast friends at McCormick & Schmick's...this chef actually found a lobster in the tank that weighed exactly what Zeek did when he was born... 1 lb 14 oz!!! I have no doubt, Zeek was a much cuter baby :)
While waiting for our transportation, Zeek checked out the Biltmore Hotel and practiced a few more GQ poses...he has this photo shoot thing down!
An afternoon visit at Bank RI and Zeek heads straight for the guy talk...he shares his cards and story with a few employees.
Here Zeek and Betty pose with Walk Chair Rob Perry as well as the March of Dimes, RI Chapter, Citizen of the Year, Merrill W. Sherman, President and CEO of Bank RI.
