"Saw at zoo!"

Two weeks ago on Saturday we had record high temperatures, and Eli and I headed to the zoo to see the "amimals." We had a great time, and Eli especially enjoyed the hippos - and like cousin Lucas did at this age, decided that "potomus" was a better nickname than "hippo" - so cute! We visited the "potomus" three times in one visit to the zoo! Of course, Eli also loved the lion, giraffes, and zebras. We got to see an adorable baby gorilla, and watch an elephant get a shower and eat carrots. Thanks to that elephant, Eli has been eating lots of carrots lately! It's been two weeks and Eli's still talking about all the animals he "saw at zoo!" The other day we heard a Jaguar car commercial on the radio and Eli shouted "Jaguar! Saw at zoo!" We'll definitely be going back - especially thanks to Nana & Pa's wonderful early birthday gift of a zoo membership!
