The day after Jackson's party was his actual birthday this year. To be honest, we had a pretty low-key day--we hung around the house, opened presents, went out for a special Happy Meal lunch, napped, played outside, and went to the Yanceys' house for dinner. This low-key day was necessary because the Birthday Boy Party Animal was awake from 1:30am-4:30am the night of his party!!! We have NEVER had a night like that! I'm pretty sure he had a tummy ache from all of the M&Ms he MUST have consumed... He spent some time in our bed and some time just being unhappy in his crib :( He finally fell back asleep, but he was a little on the touchy side all day Sunday...
On Monday, Susie and I decided to take the kids to the Zoo while the guys played golf. Jackson LOVES the Zoo! But, I think he gets SO excited about an upcoming trip there that he wastes energy. The last few times he have gone, he has melted down WAY before I would expect him to. It's so weird! This time was probably still a bit of recovery from his party... We had a really fun time, though, and the weather was GORGEOUS :)
Following the elephant footprints on the way to visit them!
It was a day of VERY silly smiles :D
Doesn't Jackson look like such a big KID???
HUGS!
Not the best picture of Jackson, but none of him were that great, so I picked the best one of me ;)
I must say that this was my first time visiting the Zoo without Josh, and I think I did pretty well navigating us around...

What a fun little zoo trip! We haven't taken the girls to the zoo yet... It was too hot during the summer, and I'm too big now. ;) Maybe this spring?
