Today turned out to be a great day for a visit to the zoo. Tim had to work the afternoon and I had to get out of the house with Ryan. He has been really fussy the past few days. Getting over his cold, but now back to teething. It looks like he is getting at least 1 more on top and on bottom, for a total of 8 teeth. So we (mom) needed a day out. We are fortunate that we only live 10 minutes away from one of the best zoos in the US. Not many people were there, so we got a front row seat at the sea lion feeding. It was great to walk around and see so many animals out and about. Ryan seemed to enjoy it and was really good for about 1 1/2 hours, then became tired and fell asleep on our ride home. I only got a few pics of him, but I did get a ton of the animals. I'll post a few of them. Looking forward to the Super 'Game" tomorrow! Go Big Red!
