Abby's first trip to the Zoo.


Today was a day of learning for us and for Abby. She learned about the animals at the Zoo, and we learned much fun she can really be and also what happens when she gets hungry.

As for the Zoo, she enjoyed the outdoors and cruizin around in her stroller but as for the animals she was not to impressed. She got to see Tigers and Lions and Bears oh my. She also got to see a Giant Panda, Mom and Dad even thought that was pretty neat. The Panda came right to the window and laid down right in front of us. They are so cute and cuddly but with very big claws. Abby also got to feed an elephant with some help from mom.




Once we made it back to our hotel, they delivered some clothes we had made and we had some play time. She was in a great mood and we got some really good pictures. She actually laughed out loud at some silly stuff daddy did. She also kept playing with the pictures book with pictures of her big brothers. She especially likes the one of Jonathan. We were on cloud 9.









Then came nap time, or so we thought. She was very fussy for a long time before Debbie realized she was hungry. She has eaten more today than the first 2 days combined. Guess she's getting use to us. Anyway, once her mom figured out she was just hungry, everything was fine.


We miss you guys and are so looking forward to bringing her home.

Love, Mark, Debbie, and Abby.
