We Bought a Zoo (Ticket)

Well, we didn't really buy a zoo ticket, but I'll talk about that a little bit later.

Last Saturday was my Aunt Nettie, Cousin Jaxson, and Cousin Taylor's birthday.  To celebrate my Aunt Nettie's birthday, I went over to her house to play with her while Mom and Dad went golfing for the first time this season.  I had lots of fun playing with Aunt Nettie and Cousin Curtis!

A few days later, we celebrated Jaxson and Taylor's birthday at Classic Skating.  Because I don't know how to skate, I got to ride in this helicopter!
 Yesterday Daddy didn't go to work!  Instead, we drove a long way to go to his friend's wedding.  We are so happy for you Colee and Jonathan!  We spent the night in Montpelier, Idaho.  I did pretty good sleeping in the same room as Mom and Dad - and Mom said she didn't even hear Dad snore during the night (probably because he was too scared he would wake me up if he did)!

On our drive back home today, we stopped in Logan for a few hours.  Daddy had read an article that Willow Park Zoo might be closing, so he said we had to go there.  The reason why it might close is because this zoo is so small, paying for admission is on the honor system.  Daddy made sure to pay because he wants it to be there when I go to Utah State.  He said that it's a fun place to go on dates :)

The first animals we saw were some monkeys.  They were so cute, and I had so much fun watching them.
 My next favorite animal was the coyote - it kept running around its cage!  Then we saw the emus and they had some baby emus running around them.  I decided I needed a piggy back ride from my Mommy.
 
 Then we saw the peacock, and it came right in front of us!
 After I was done looking at the animals, we decided to go to the park to ride on the toys.  This was my first time on a swing (besides the baby swing).
 
If you can't tell, I like it.....a lot....I mean, A LOT!!!!!
I also went on the slide.  I liked it too, and I even have a slide in our neighborhood that I can go on everyday.
Did I tell you how much I love the swings?

9 Months Old!

I turned 9 months old yesterday, and what did I get to show for it? A trip to the doctor where they took blood from my foot! How mean, right???!!!



What we found out from Dr. Z is that my hemoglobin levels are good, which means I can start drinking real milk here pretty soon! They also took all of my measurements:


Length: 28.7 inches (65%)


Weight: 19.9 lbs (50%)


Head: 17.6 inches (40%)


I sure am a growing boy and I really love to play with my Mommy and my Daddy!

Easter

I started out my Easter festivities with a super fun egg hunt at my neighborhood park. I live in the best neighborhood and there are so many fun kids to play with!


As you can see, I love Easter eggs! I've been playing with them all week.

I spent the weekend mastering climbing stairs. I don't know how to go down them yet (except face first) but I'm getting so good at going up!
On Saturday I got to go to my little cousin's birthday party. She is a few months older than me and I had so much fun playing with her at her party!
On Sunday the Easter Bunny left me a big basket full of fun things. My favorite thing that I got was a wind up frog for bath time. I really like frogs!
Me and my cousins went over to Grandma and Grandpa's house for another Easter egg hunt and a yummy dinner.
Check out all the eggs that Daddy helped me find:
I had the best first Easter ever and I can't wait until next year to do it all over again!!
