A Day at the Zoo

(No really, the Portland Zoo. Not just another day at the zoo we call our house...)

First exhibit: the backhoe! So exciting.

Jack with his sister/girlfriend/arch nemesis.

We got to see Sam, the baby elephant. Man, the zoo is kind of depressing. I wish those animals would frolic or something. They just seem so morose and downtrodden. Except for the hippos- they seem to have a good time tossing a ball around and biting at each other.  

Sawyer's first trip in the stroller as a big boy (without the carseat). New and exciting straps to chew on! He was a fan.

Jack's favorites- the train and Nuncle Nick (the uncle formerly known as Uncle Ick) and Aunt Mishaun! Do you like his hat? (I made it.)



"Hey Mom! How 'bout we get a giraffe?"

Hmm. I don't think so.

The first picture made me laugh. Garrett is the same way, whenever there is construction going on he has to stop and check it out, sometimes he even drives purposely towards construction areas (drives me nuts at times!) It seems inevitable that Quinn will be just as mesmerized someday too!
