zoo day
i took allie in for her six-month checkup this past thursday. she got two shots. 
but all’s well with little girlie. she’s holding steady on her growth chart at 25 1/4 inches tall (25-50%) and 16 pounds 5.5 ounces (50-75%). we’re still amazed by her baby chubs since mikey was the polar opposite. he was nearly a year old before he got to 16 pounds!
and the day before that, phil actually got home early post-call. so we took the kiddos to the zoo. turned out to be a great day to be there as it was very uncrowded and the weather was perfect for walking around outside. it also happened to be the single sunny day this week!
caught this sun bear blissfully basking in the warm afternoon sun.
cute little baby monkey waving hello.
meanwhile, my cute little baby was about ready for a nap.
check out the crazy teeth on this shark! yikes!
taking in the dolphin show.
it wasn’t sea world, but pretty cool nonetheless.

me: mikey, look! there’s a moose!
mikey: hold it? hold it?
daddy: uh, the moose is a little too big for you to hold.
mikey: hold it? hoooooold it?!
