A Fun Sunday!

Today I got together for a play-date with two friends from high school (Robin and Jessica) and their daughters (Madolyn and Eva). Addie loves playing with other kids, especially those a little bigger than her, so she had a really fun time. It was a really good way for the three of us to catch up and reconnect in a whole new way.

Then it was off to the zoo for lunch and a walk with Brian! As always, Addie loved looking at all the animals. The only difference this time, is whenever we took her out of the Bjorn or stroller she wanted to just roam around on her own! Yikes! She is way too small for that already! She has definately become much more exploratory and independent lately. She has been very clear with her preferences when it comes to food, toys, and activities. Many times when we try to help her with things she will swat our hands away in an "all done" motion. And when she is proud of herself or wants more of an activity she is quick to let us know through signs and clapping.


(As you can see, the zoo was a hit!)
