To the Zoo

Sam learned a new sign today. He learned how to give me Thumbs Up!



I'm a little proud. But he had a lot to give Thumbs up about, we went to the zoo today, for the first time without big brother. And we had a good time.



Sea lions, and tigers, and bears, Oh My!



But we met up with our friend Nathanael and his mama Rachel, which made for a nice playdate too.



I better get used to this weird feeling of being with Sam for most of the day all by ourselves,



These two crack me up. They think I'm the Crazy one? I'm not the one hopping fences to run off with giraffes.



Or just run off.



Luckily Sam doesn't go too far.



It was a great visit, good to see friends, albeit a little strange to not have big brother dictating or troublemaking. Don't get me wrong, Sam is feisty, he really fought a nap when we got home, powernapping in the car doesn't quite count, but it's like a whole different kid.

Did I mention he's starting to say his own name, I thought I heard him say Sam today. Not Siv. I don't think i'm ready for that. Though sometimes I can talk him into saying his whole name, Samuel Elijah Willman, sometimes it sounds like Siv Yijah Nulan. Today I swear I hear Sam Yijah. Mostly he says, I Not Sam Yijah. But you are baby, you are.
