Who Needs A Nap?

Keagan refused to take a nap today. This was him 2 hours after climbing out of bed - trying to watch a movie.

Mother's Day

We had a very busy day today. Mommy took me to the airport first (because I really wanted to see planes).  Then we headed to the Point Defiance Zoo for a fun morning.
 I'm not sure what these guys are doing - but I think I'll join in.
 It took us a long time to get to the aquarium because we couldn't get past this slow moving peacock.
 There's a lot of green, grassy hills to run on at this place.
 Hard to tell, but these are the new spotted leopard cubs. One was sound asleep and the other one kept trying to wrestle him awake. He finally gave up and went to sleep too.
 Look! A Sumatran Tiger. He's pretty big. I'm glad he's on the other side of the glass.
 Penguins! They swim fast.
 Time for a mid-morning snack. I wanted ice cream and a lollipop. Mommy made me eat these mandarin oranges instead. But I did get some juice in the crocodile sippy thing.
 Time to get dirty in the Kid's Play Zone.
 Maybe I'll just sprinkle some dirt on this turtle since he's not moving.
 Found some more fish.
 The zoo is exhausting. Mommy tried to get a picture of me sleeping, she quit snapping pictures when she saw a police car in front of us.
After lunch at home and a brief failed nap - it was off to Snoqualmie Falls.
 This is what it looked like at the first observation area.
 I'm bored waiting for the people to move out of my way so I can see the Falls some more.  Don't I look spiffy in my hat though?
 Here's a better picture of the Falls. We kept getting sprayed by the mist.
 More fun places to run here. There was this flat space and a really steep hill that I ran up a bunch of times.
Time to refuel. This time Mommy let me have some ice cream bites.Then - off to home.

I got to play in this fun sand pit at the zoo. It was a ton of fun, until I got some in my eye.
Lots of fun hills near Snoqualmie Falls. I ran up and down this one over, and over, and over....

Making Music With Elmo

Mommy took me to Sesame Street Live: Elmo Makes Music Today.
 First I went to the PlayZone and saw Elmo. He talked to me when I pushed the red button.
 Here's Bert & Ernie.
 They had a talking button too.
 Some of the characters came into the PlayZone to sing and dance before the big show.
 We're not sure who this guy is... so Mommy decided his name was Walter.
 I'm not so sure I want to get close to those big guys. I'll just stand very close to Mommy and watch for now.
 There's Ernie.
 And Cookie Monster. I kept saying hi -but didn't want to get close enough for him to touch my hand.

 Ernie taught us a new dance.
 Here's the stage where the characters will perform. We got pretty good seats considering they were free.
 That's the entrance to the PlayZone. Everybody's in their seat waiting for the show.
 Everyone's on stage. I can't stop smiling.
They're really good singers and dancers. I had a lot of fun, but I was pretty tired by the end of the show.  I fell asleep before we got out of Tacoma.

Dancing With Cookie Monster

I learned a new dance. Of course, I didn't do most of it when Mommy had the camera rolling, but you get the idea. (Mommy also held the camera wrong and can't figure out how to make it not sideways.)
