Zoo Adventures with Grandma Tempel

So it's probably not the warmest time of year to be looking at animals outside, but the crowds were thin and the animals were aplenty, so we decided to embark upon our adventure at the Kansas City Zoo last Saturday. Thanks to Grandma Tempel for the fabulous experience. We will definitely be going back soon. Eli's new favorite animals are deer (see the video) as well as monkeys of all sorts. We had a fabulous time and would highly recommend the zoo as a wonderful daytime outing.

11Month Photos

Happy 11 Months, Little Man! Once again, I cannot believe another month has passed. You are growing up so quickly and we are enjoying every second of it.

We love you!

Sick :(

Eli is sick with RSV/Bronchiolitis...at least, that's what they think it is. I tend to think that RSV is simply a default sickness that doctors go to when they are a little unsure of what someone has...something generic for any type of respiratory infection. He has been feverish for the past few days and lethargic. I also think that he's getting some brand-new teeth in, so I am sure that "helps."

Doctor's appt. was NOT fun this a.m. They had to draw two vials of blood via finger prick...it took forever and he screamed the entire time. Then they took chest x-rays to rule our pneumonia. It's one of those days that makes you thankful that you're a parent, but frustrated that you can't take the pain away.

Needless to say, we will be staying in for a while. Poor little guy.
