The Big 1st Birthday

I was sitting in his bed this morning waiting so patiently for mom or dad to come and get me. Little did I know mom had blown up a whole bunch of balloons to dump in my bed this morning. After the initial surprise with the intrusion of balloons I jumped right in kicking, bouncing, and moving around all of the balloons. A great start to for my 1st birthday.

A birthday wouldn't be complete though without mommy taking tons of pictures of me, my elephant, and my birthday number 1! I guess I could give her a little show if it will make her happy.

After all of the excitement of waking up to balloons being dumped in my bed, I didn't know how this day could get any better. Again mommy and daddy had a surprise for me, and off to the MN zoo we went.

Animals, what animals? Puddles are way more fun!

 Riding the Monorail was very exciting at first, but it did put me to sleep.

I had a great time at the zoo. I did end up falling asleep in the last 1/2 hour that we were at the zoo, and did you know that a tiger escaped from the zoo. When I woke up he was right next to me. So I brought him home.

The day ended with a drive in movie of chipwrecked, a bath, and a good night story from my mommy. What a great 1st birthday! PS. The tiger was stuffed.
