Zoo-m!

I've been very remiss in updating this page since our trip to Maine. We've had a crazy couple of weeks. We are keeping our fingers crossed that our apartment will really sell this time, and we're close to finding a house ourselves. Plus Mommy has accepted a new job. So -- many life changes all at once!

We went to the zoo the other weekend -- a little zoo near our home that is just perfect for families. It's just the right size to see everything in under two hours. There's a petting zoo, pony rides, and an awesome little train ride that we all enjoyed (see above photo). We went with some good friends who all have kids of their own. It was a big hit with grown ups and kids alike.

The Wogger has been chugging right along at full speed these days. She is curious about everything, has learned to climb up onto the dining room table when no one is looking, and has perfected her favorite word: "No!" She pretty much says no to every question you ask her, even when she means yes. She is also very good at pointing to a lot of her body parts when you name them. Elbow is one of her favorites, though when she tries to say it, it comes out "bubow." She still can only say a few words; we're anxiously awaiting the language breakthrough that we hope will make for fewer tantrums and screaming fits when she can't communicate what she wants.
