A visit from A-ma and A-gong!

A-ma and A-gong came to Chicago this weekend for a little pre-birthday celebration! We spent most of the time indoors playing (unfortunately, I didn't take any pictures of that :( ... and Aaron had so much fun playing peek-a-boo, reading, waving to and sharing all of his toys with A-ma and A-gong!) On Sunday, we made our second trip to Brookfield Zoo. It was a gorgeous day and we even had a picnic outdoors! Then we went out to dinner and came home for a little cake. :) Thanks for a great weekend, A-ma and A-gong! See you over Christmas :)

Not-so-shy llama at the petting zoo.

A cute little 6 week old chick! Aaron will pet Sophie, but not this chick...?

Aaron and Daddy observe a reindeer...

... then Aaron tries some antlers on for size. :)

(Andrew made me do it. :P)

Looking at a hawk with A-gong and A-ma.

Beautiful day to go to the zoo!

Taking a break with daddy.

Walking with A-ma and A-gong.

Aaron watches seals swimming with A-ma.

"I want a funny penny...!"

"...with a dolphin on it..."

"... to put in my mouth!"

Walking with Mom and Dad.

"I'm a cute panda!"

"I'm a cute pig!"

"All aboard! I'm a cute conductor!"

Walking with Daddy.

"I'm getting pretty good at this!"

"Bye-bye bear, see you next time, buddy!"

Little pre-birthday celebration at home. :)

"Why are they strapping me in? I can totally handle this..."

"Let me at it!"

"Hm... soft... sticky..."

"... not bad..."

"Gimme some more!"

"This looks like a nice, big tasty piece..."

"... to put in my mouth! Oh yeah, this is me using both hands!"

"Sophie, you want some?"

"I'm a mess! ... must have been some good birthday cake! Thanks A-ma and A-gong!"
