Friday the family and I went to the SF Zoo for the day. It was a fun trip.
We got a map and saw almost every animal that was on the map. Of course, som e of them were hiding away, but they are wild animals, so one can’t expect them to be in front of the display all the time. The only thing that I was kind of disappointed that they didn’t have was an elephant. What zoo doesn’t have an elephant?
By far the kids favorite exhibit was the penguins. We stayed at that exhibit for what seemed like half an hour. They kept pointing to the penguins, waving at them, and watching them swim. Jango kept saying “Hi, Puddles!”, which is the name of his stuffed penguin he sleeps with at home. When we finally left the exhibit to see other animals, they both waved goodbye and J said “Bye, Puddles!”
They got some toy penguins to remember the experience and the photo they take in the beginning of the tour. I would love to do it again, but not the traffic!

So the baby is doing well. I go back to the doctor on the 24th. I’m nnow a three week patient instead of a four week one. So close to being here and I don’t know if I am totally prepared. I’m sure I will be soon enough.
Cinco is getting so big on me. He keeps singing the Spongebob Squarepants theme song. He knows a lot of the words. I don’t think he has caught on that he will be a big brother again though until the new baby boy is here.
Jango’s vocabulary increases all the time. He knows Mommy has a baby in her tummy, but he sometimes points to his tummy and says “baby”. He likes to kiss my tummy. He is my affectionate child. He loves giving hugs or kisses whenever he wants to, which I think is great. He’s catching up to his brother in weight and height.
It’s weird to think that this year I’ll have a newbron, a 2 year old, and a 4 year old. Amazing. Now to get the oldest to use the potty!
