one of those sweet little days

Will and I have been laying low this week.

He has what I think is croup and although I

don't know if he is contagious or not he sounds

like he's coughing up a lung and I don't want

anyone else to deal with the sleep deprived nights.

Yesterday we ran errands in the morning.

He took a nap at my mom's during my Dr.'s appt.

(All is looking and sounding good...ultrasound is next Wed.:)

Then we set out to entertain each other for the afternoon.

We headed to Pt. Defiance to feed the ducks

but were greeted by a "DO NOT FEED THE WILDLIFE"

sign...we would violate RCW blah, blah, blah...

Well, we cruised down to the pond and I snuck Will

bread, 2 chunks at a time, from inside the diaper bag.

We soon found out why they don't want people feeding

the wildlife...they attack. There were seagulls,

squirrels, ducks, and other weird birds

surrounding us within seconds and they practically

crawled up our legs to get at the food.

Sufficiently creeped out we ditched the wildlife frenzy

and snuck over to the playground.

As usual the slides and swings were the big hit.

As we were leaving the park he noticed the Muskox

you can see in the Zoo and pleaded to go in.

Why not?

We cruised the zoo for and hour and a half and

got a great show.

The tigers were out, the elephants were doing their

normal, sad swaying back and forth thing (we said

they were dancing?), the fish were a huge hit as usual,

the belugas were eating and doing tricks and

we shared a popcorn while taking it all in.

Will took his second nap of the day when we got home

and we ended the night at my mom's for a

great dinner and one of my favorite desserts.

Wish everyday was so carefree and fun!
