A Day at the Zoo

 On Tuesday we went to the zoo.  Ryan has had this week off.  Megan walked almost the whole time.  If you have ever walked the hills of the Oakland Zoo, you know that’s quite an effort!  Erik couldn’t have been happier with the open stroller seat.  I’m pretty sure the tanbark at the edge of the exhibits was the highlight for Megan.  For the boys, it was the train. 

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Note to self: take group photos at the beginning of the day, not after walking around a zoo on a hot day for four hours.

Today is our 9th anniversary!  I took Megan for her two year old check-up, so Harvey took the boys to the dollar store as a treat.  The years of jewelry are over…my anniversary card and gift totaled $2.  Harvey did assure me that he did pick the very best card in the store.  Since I paid $2.89 for his card, I’m considering it a card/gift combo.  Depending on how many of the snack Snicker bars I end up getting…it all seems fair enough.  Proof that we are meant to be together!

 

Megan is 29 lbs. and 15 oz.  Let’s just round to 30 folks.  She is in the 85th percentile for weight.  She is one pound less than Erik.  She is in the 75th percentile for height.  The doctor was pleased with how she is doing.  She also has a preemie.  We switched doctors and I am so happy.  I have now cut my commute down from 35 min. to 2 min.  Yeah!
