The Zoo!

We bought our first ever family pass to the zoo today!! The zoo is so much more interesting than it was when I was young and I'm excited to not be working this summer (for the first time in forever) so Koen and I can spend a lot of time exploring the exhibits. The zoo is never boring and you never know what will happen! On his first visit to the zoo, Koen was a favorite of the lions (good thing there is safety glass) and today we ran into our friend Laura Bettis and her children, Clyde and Alice. They are zoo regulars and know everything there is to know so they were fantastic tour-guides.

Early 2010

The first few months of 2010 have been very busy and we've taken advantage of the recent warmer weather by going to the parks and the zoo and taking lots of walks around the North End. Koen has also enjoyed naps in the sun, hanging out in the space between the den window and the storm windows, and eating a lot of black beans. He LOVES black beans!! Koen's also been experimenting with the nudist lifestyle but his mean parents aren't supporting this lifestyle choice until he's potty trained. We sure learned that the hard way! ;)
