Off to the zoo we go!

We decided to go to the zoo today.  It was nice since we have a membership b/c we waited until after Sam's nap.  We got there around 2:30 and there weren't very many people there at all.

Giving Mr. Lion the stare down.

Walking like a lion

Riding the tram.

Train ride!

Sam loved it!

Making monkey sounds. 

Hello, Mr. Bear.

He makes me smile!

Sam is getting so big and makes me smile all. the. time.  Well, when he's not screaming. 

We went for a walk on the trail again.  We didn't get very far b/c Sam had to keep stopping to push his trucks on the ground or to throw his ball.  He's so fun!

Who needs a trampoline?

When you have a crib...



Science Center

We visited the Science Center today.  Pop-Pop and Harmony came along.  They came to spend time with Sam.  We welcomed them along to help us keep track of Sam b/c he is so fast now and prefers to RUN everywhere.

I thought we'd get to see the cool Sesame Street show at the planetarium but Sam lasted maybe 10 minutes and then we had to leave.  :-(  It was really cool though.

We waited too long to get pics and Sam was quickly melting down.

"No more pics.  I want to go home!"

Pic of the week

J says I spend too much at the bookstore on books for Sam.  Not b/c he doesn't want Sam to have new books but b/c we can just go to the library and borrow books for free.  Sam seems to love it there.

(sidenote:  I do have to work on getting over my anxiety/OCD about how germy the books can be.  Especially considering the books spend lots of time at other people's houses that we don't know and the library doesn't sanitize them when they are returned.)
