Birthweek - Day 7: A morning at the zoo!

Friday morning at Como Zoo with Zoe and the boys!
Pretty giraffe! (Wouldn't you love to have eyes as beautiful as those?)


Majestic daddy lion! (the shot of the mommy lion didn't turn out)


Leo making penny wishes for everyone (I love how he's got his feet positioned so he can be thatmuch higher and closer to the top part of the fountain!)
I hope his wish for me comes true. I also hope he wished that my condo would sell.


Zoe and Eli, Baby Bjorn-style


Super awesome exhibit-y thing in the kids play area -- Leo made it rain! How cool is that?!


We rounded out the morning with lunch at The Good Earth where I had the most phenomenal turkey meatloaf with all the (fabulous, better-than-Thanksgiving) fixings. Highly recommended!

My new buddy Eli

This is my new buddy Eli, my friend Zoe's new little one. Isn't he an adorable grumpy little man? He's kind of a big deal, with his own blog and everything. My weekly lunches with Zoe have been so wonderful -- I get to catch up with her AND snuggle a clean, happy, baby-smelling baby (and I think she appreciates having two hands to eat with, too ;) )
