ZOO!

Miss C and Gma La La at the Zoo
The zoo is near, and with my wonderful gift membership, we had our first visit on Sunday.  Miss C enjoyed watching the animals, especially the spider monkeys.  She did her usual "whoops" of delight, and waved her two armed wave at the monkeys and the gorillas.
The tiger in the water delighted our little one.  I'm not sure if it was the tiger or the water.  (See the post about the beach and pool.)  We brought home a stuffed tiger in honor of her delight.
America's First Zoo has a balloon to ride when the weather permits.  Not permitting on Sunday.  Daddy wants to go up, so it was great that the balloon was not flying this trip.

My Margaret Mead personae continues: watching a baby learn to go from all fours to sitting; watching the pointer finger begin its work; noting a little baby sign language develop -- "more."

Today we had an outing to the grocery store, and when Miss C saw the mylar balloons at the check stand, she wanted "more," "more!"  My accomplishment is to go to the store and find my way home without getting lost!  I feel a great deal of responsibility having Miss C in the car.
