Pittsburgh Fun

On Saturday I met up with some ladies & their kids at the park for a free "Alphabet Trail and Tales" thing put on by the city. They had lots of fun things for kids - storytelling (reading), poems, puppet show, petting zoo, face painting, balloon animals, etc., etc. We went for a couple hours and Eli seemed to have a good time. He especially liked the puppet show and the reading of "The Very Hungry Caterpillar". :) It was cute. Connor was a dream baby in the stroller and Jeremy was a gem and dropped us off and picked us up so we didn't have to park 5 blocks away.

Here Eli's flirting with his little friend Annabelle. She's 13 months and has a brother a few months older than Eli that he likes to play with too, but Eli likes to follow Annie around and play with her. It's pretty cute.

And...he's asleep.

Then today I took the kids to the zoo again! Good thing there's a lot to do around here. Jeremy thought I'd be lonely - psh, I'm havin' a ball! ;) Haha. Anyway, I met up with some friends and we had a great time. We stayed longer than I anticipated, but it was really fun. I remembered my camera this time (yahoo!), but the animals didn't do anything especially noteworthy. Oh well. I'll keep bringing it and hopefully catch something exciting. :)

The baby elephants were drinking from their momma. I thought it was so sweet. :)
Smile!
Shark attack!!!
Snooze-head.
Eli was especially taken with this Mexican Lizard. (Ew! what a boy)

Not in the mood for a smile.

It was fun! I'm sure we'll go again soon.
