Zoo Rain

122_2257zoocat.jpg
If you want free range on the entire zoo with very few other humans to impede your view of the animals, visit on a rainy day. How about a rainy weekend day? Well Estella and I did just that, got there right when things were opening on Saturday. We played at the park a bit before hand and then walked right through the front gates, courtesy of our membership card. The first exhibit was the new, restless jaguar. You can see above tehat the exhibit is impressive. You can literally be the thickness of the glass away from the great cat.
After that we went to the gorilla exhibit which Estella liked until the gorillas started wrestling around with each other. She screamed at that. She has a deep set aversion to people wrestling which includes hugging, kissing and tickling. If Robyn and I give each other a playful hug Estella freaks out. Silly little one.
She and I went shopping tonight and we played the I say something you repeat it game. She is getting quite good at that. She can say taco, bus, cheese, cool and many other short words like those. Good job baby! Oh and she can walk really fast.

That is a great pic, I missed the cat for the first couple glances. Very scary...

Jonathan-
This is a great picture of Estella at the Zoo. I am so happy to be Estella's Aunt and I love writing comments on your website. I love all three of you so much and I am glad to have you as brother and you are the best father to my niece. Tell Robyn that said hello.
Love,
Auntie Caroline

That was neat that you got to go to Spokane last weekend to see the other Great Grandma. I am sure she was so happy to see you three!!!! That was nice that you got in touch with Susan. She said she took you out for coffee Sunday and she thought Estella was so cute and so friendly!!!!! We are happy that she got to see Darling Estella.!!!! We celebrated our 58th anniversary yesterday. All I can say is WOW!!!!!!! Can you believe 58 years. Each day has been a gift from God and we are so thankful for all these years together!!!!!
