Lions & Tigers & Bears.....Oh My!

Taking advantage of our 65 degree weekend weather, we decided to spent the afternoon at the Brookfield Zoo today! Brian has always enjoyed going on our various outings, but it was a lot of fun to see that he was much more aware of his surrounding today. He pointed to the animals as he saw them move and he thought the seals and sea lions were hysterical as they swam past him! We would love to show you some pictures from our day but since Mommy forgot the camera at home, how about a picture of one tired boy! Actually that brings us to a very funny story. Since he was short a nap today, Mommy and Daddy planned on putting him to bed a little earlier than normal. About 7:00, he went over by his little brother and waved to him, then gave Daddy a hug and kiss, then gave Mommy a hug and kiss, and then went to his bedroom. Mommy and Daddy looked at each other and said "I guess he's ready for bed!" Brian has always been very good about going to bed but tonight was the first time that he decided for himself that it was bedtime!
