Welcome to the Jungle!

Last week, I had my first trip to the Kansas City Zoo with Grandpa Van, Grandma Terri & Uncle Bren. We had a good time and I really loved the animals!
Here are a couple of wild ones!
Uncle Bren & I got to ride a Hippo!


This is my first ever boat ride. We rode a boat across a lake and into Africa! How that happened, I don't know. I've been looking at a map and it seems like we'd be on a boat for a much longer time.
Here are a few of my favorite animals that we saw along the way... The sea lions are cool! I love their barking noises and how they splash!


I would really like to climb on this turtle and ride - he's HUGE!
Ah, the monkeys! I love them all! Mom and Dad were arguing about whose side of the family they were on. I guess there's a lot of family that I haven't met yet. This big guy had a few lower teeth like me.



The giraffes are soooo tall! I'd like to slide down their necks!

These meercats were a hoot! Here they are worshipping the sun gods, I guess.

Then one decided to play dead.

I copied him!
The nap was short lived so I didn't miss much! What a fun day we had!
Last week, I also got to go to the water park and splash - just like the sea lions. I've been working on my climbing skills on the steps at home too. Usually when I climb them, Mom and Dad talk about insurance and ambulances and the emergency room, then they make me stop climbing. Last night, I got my 5th tooth! Now I have 2 teeth on top and 3 on bottom. I'm still waiting for that steak...anyone?
