The San Diego Zoo...and the bumbo

Now that the draft is over, we get to spend a little more time with Daddy! This week, or family adventure took us to the San Diego Zoo... a place where neither Jeff or I have been for YEARS. We were so excited to go! It was such a fabulous day in San Diego...Barely overcast (my personal favorite)...the perfect day for the hugest zoo ever!
We couldn't wait to see the Polar Bears. We jokingly call Jeff a polar bear because he's big and white and toasty. The Phx zoo doesn't have polar bears, and we were particularly excited to see them with the kids.

I couldn't resist taking this picture of Jeff and the Elephants pa-toot..hee hee

Ivy was zonking while we looked at the fun new elephant exhibit: it was huge and up close!
The elephants have always been Max's favorite at the zoo.

I'm always the one with the camera, and usually have to ask for Jeff to take a picture of me and the kiddos... but Jeff was frisky and actually took some pictures himself... good job, jeffer!
After we came home, we were getting ready for our friends to come over for dinner. Poor Ivy had been in the stroller and her car seat all the live long day, so I thought we'd try out her new bumbo that Steve and Becky bought us. We didn't have a bumbo for Max...so I was anxious to see how it worked, and how Ivy liked it...
how fun is that! she can stinkin's sit and she's only 11 weeks old! Thanks S & B...we love it!
...our little dolly...
We had such a fun day with our family!
