Calvin and Eliza

Eliza and Calvin are thick as thieves these days. Anna accused her of "hogging" the baby, but the truth is, Anna has never showed too much interest. Eliza likes to kiss or hug or squeeze his cheeks all day. I assume these two will always be close because they are so close in age and I look forward to watching them play together. Poor Anna wishes Eliza was older, or at least more communicative but they are getting pretty good at playing together too.

Zoobee zoobee zoo

We went to the Zoo! The weather was comparably beautiful (50) so we packed a lunch and went on up. There were plenty of people there but it wasn't crowded, which was wonderful while we checked out the new section with bears and etc. half of the zoo is under construction for the new African savannah habitat which is going to be awesome, opening 2014. Fortunately it is the boring half, no train rides or playground though we could see all the animals.
