Lions, Tigers, Bears, Oh My!

The Peoria Zoo is grrrrrrreat! Look how close I was able to get to the tiger. Some of the exhibits were closed yet for the season, so I've got an excuse to take M back to the zoo again. Plus, a new African area is opening this June; so, "gramma's and grampa's" get your walking shoes together!

While at the zoo, I played veterinarian for awhile. But, mostly I just put on the uniform to impress all the girls zipping by in their strollers! I was still feeling a little under the weather and therefore didn't flash my winning smile at them - darn it!

At home, I greeted D with a very clear "daddy" this afternoon. Boy, it's the little things that seem to mean the most to those parents of mine!
