To the Zoo!

I wasn't feeling that great last week and it turned out that I had an ear infection in both ears (ouch). By the weekend I was starting to feel better so Mom and Dad took me to the Boise zoo to help cheer me up. I love to read about zoo animals, so it was really fun to see them up close.

I saw four lions -ROOOAAARRR!!!
I saw two TigersWe also saw a giraffe (just like Giraffe Guy, but much much taller), funny monkeys, bald eagles, goats, zebras, lamas, a tortoise, and some other animals that weren't nearly as entertaining.

The next day we went to Camelsback Park to play. This park is designed for bigger kids so it had much zippier slides that our normal park. Waahooo!
This park also has a big sand hill that we can climb.
Dad was traveling all week so Mom needed my help with some gardening. She even gave me my own shovel and rake.



Wow, I'm really tired, so I'd better go to bed. See you next time!

Extreme Climbing

Look out! I am an excellent climber these days. My latest trick is climbing onto my chair to peek over the bar at Mom and Dad in the kitchen.
Look at me climbing the rock wall at the park. Don't worry, Dad was 'spotting me' from 10 feet away while taking these photos......Here I am showing a little spunk on the slide.

My hair is getting so long these days. It is just barely long enough to squeeze into piggy-tails.
Since my bangs were constantly in my eyes, I got my first "mommy haircut." Here's the "after" shot.I'm also very good at stacking blocks and spices. I'm WAY ahead of the "What to Expect...." book in terms of stacking, which is why Mom's friend at work calls me "an advanced child." A little pre-bath time streaking. :)And a little kitchen dance to say, "Bye, bye!"
