Monkeys!

For my birthday Nana came up and we went to the zoo. Cooper loved it. He ran the whole way and loved looking at all the animals. I could really see how big he is getting when he got on the little tiger. This thing is our main growth chart.
Cooper LOVED the monkeys! We had to go back twice to see them and when I askd him days later what he liked at the zoo he kept saying, "MONKEYS!"
Cooper was so happy his Nana and Papa came up. I told him they were coming for a couple of days so he woke up asking for his Nana and Papa.
My favorite part of the whole adventure was Cooper and the fake penguins. He wasn't that impressed with the real ones. But we had to hang out with the fake ones for quite awhile, just you know, talking about whatever penguins talk about (fish maybe?)
When I told Cooper we had to leave the penguins he had to kiss all of them goodbye (and there were a lot!).
Then he had to make the loop and kiss them all goodbye one more time. It was cute except I had to wonder how many germs were touching his lips. Oh well, it definately wasn't the grossest thing that got close to his mouth that week.
