The Zoo

Aaahhh...one of my favorite places to go! Here are some pictures from our first outing to the Minnesota Zoo last month.

This is great!!!

Take 3 (all including Eddie the Eagle are looking at the camera)

So close I could almost reach out and touch them!

This Tapir is much more interesting than dada (and mama...are you sleeping?)

Dada...watching all of these animals makes me tired!

The highlight of this dreary day...chasing after my crawling babyroo, then catching up with her, tickling her, and listening to her squeal in delight!

Today's conversation on the way home from daycare:

Babyroo: dadadadadadada
Me: Oh really...is that right?!

Babyroo: dadadadadadada
Me: Yep, that's nice

Babyroo: dadadadadadada
Me: Can we try mama now?

Babyroo: DADA!

I guess I am succumbing to the fact that Babyroo's first word is dada. Good thing she's so darn cute!

Happy Father's Day...Dada!
