6 months and a trip to the zoo!

Connor turned 6 months yesterday and we decided to take a trip to the Memphis Zoo. This past weekend, the weather was unheard of for Memphis because usually it is about 100 with 90% humidity, well this whole weekend it was in the 80's!

The day started out with our class at Hope to become members of the church. Connor enjoyed himself in the nursery and of course flirted with all the little girls. Then we went and had lunch with Chase and Cassie before we all headed over to the zoo. Obviously everyone in Memphis had the same idea as we did about going to the zoo, because it was packed! Poor Connor had a hard time seeing the animals because of the level he was at in the stroller. (Plus he really didn't know what he was looking for when he looked in the cages) However, there were two exhibits that he absolutely loved. The first was the pengiuns! I think that he loves them so much because he watches the cartoon Madagascar every morning. The second favorite was the aquarium. Connor got so excited that he would squeal and kick his little legs, it was so cute! Other than that he could have cared less about the rest of the animals. The other special treat of Connor's day was his first taste of shaved ice. Not just plain shaved ice, pink lemonade shaved ice! (he couldn't get enough of it)

Connor's six month appointment is on Friday, so I will do another post then with all of his updates. But here of some of the pictures from yesterday and some other random ones...











You can tell it was a long day!
