Honolulu Zoo, Adyson's two.

Sorry for the picture overload, but this post is for the grandma's and grandpa's.  Last Saturday we took Ady to the Zoo.  We thought it would be a good way to celebrate her turning 2.  Turns out we were right.  It was so fun and Adyson was even funnier.  She kept saying "Hi" and "Bye" to all the animals in the only voice tone she has-LOUD.  Everyone around us thought it was pretty cute too.  We practically peeled her away from all the fences and glass cages to go to the next animal-which she loved just as much as the last!  
Ya know, as a kid going to the zoo was sort of fun for me.  Time went on, and as I got older it really wasn't at the top of my list.  But now I'm older and a mom and this zoo outing was great and even more fun than when i was little.   Kinda like how christmas starts losing its excitement the older you get, but then when you have kids it turns exciting again.  It's a different exciting, but I think i like it even better.  Watching Adyson be so excited about the little things in life is so fulfilling.  Its a good reminder that I should enjoy the small excitements of life too.
Here are the pics...hope you enjoy them as much as we enjoyed being there with Ady.


This is how Ady was nonstop...like she was glued to a TV Screen.  If she could have gone in she would have.  When we finally pulled her off, she'd make a monkey noise and put her hands on her shoulders.  She is pretty cute.Hanging with Dad and the Hippos
Leaning over the fence to get a closer look again!
So interesting.
Always pointing to the next animal
Look Mom!  It's the same guy off of Madagascar 2.
She didn't want to look at the camera to pose for a picture(taking after dad again!)...just wanting to see the "phant" as she calls them.  
Hug the glass more Ady...maybe you'll get closer. 
This is her favorite one...zebras giraffes and rhinoceros!
She didn't look back twice...
And there she goes!

I love the picture of her looking at the camera in front of the zebras, giraffes, and rhinos. She is such a cutie! I didn't realize how long her hair is getting.
