Since Snookums is home this week, we happily accepted his sister’s invitation to accompany her and her son Kurt to Sydney’s Taronga Zoo yesterday. We figured it would be a pleasant morning of pushing the baby around in his stroller and pointing out animals to him. Man, we were so wrong. I had no idea how much energy two-year-olds have! We chased him up and down that place. (Our legs are sore today!) Everybody had a great time though. Here are my favorite three pictures from the day:

Kurt and Rodd     Penguin family     Kurt in my hat

The first one is Uncle Rodd and Kurt in front of the chimpanzee island. What a bunch of monkey boys! The second is me, Rodd, and Kurt as a family of penguins. And the last is Kurt at lunch wearing my new red hat and giving us his beautiful big boy smile. Isn’t he a cutie?

  2. Speaking of, has Baby Jann #2 arrived yet?

  3. Still waiting…
