An Afternon At The Zoo

Auntie Jill and Millie were up North last weekend visiting.  Bella loves animals, so a perfect meeting place was the Oakland zoo.  If you look closely at this picture, an ape is  diagonally across from Auntie Jill's head.  Bella likes to make monkey sounds when she sees them.  As Mommy mentioned before, Bella does not like to smile on command.

Mommy took a family selfie on the safari train ride.  We saw emus, deers and baby kangaroos.

K enjoyed seeing the giraffes.

During lunch, K wanted to hold Millie who is 9 months old.  Doesn't Millie look the same size as K?  She definitely weighs the same as Bella.  It was a fun day at the zoo!  We hope Millie and Auntie Jill come back to visit again soon!

Sunday, Ashley, Auntie Annie, Ethan, Gung Gung and Po Po came over for a bbq.  Daddy set up a tent for the girls to play with in the backyard.

K really knew how to kick back and relax in her castle.  She laid down and ate snacks.  What a true princess!

While the girls played with the tent, Bella and Gung Gung were occupied with kinetic sand.

The evening ended with cake for Gung Gung's birthday.

When it's time to go grocery shopping, K always asks to go to Trader Joe's, so she can push her own cart.

Bella went to visit K's school the other day.  K was excited to show Bella her playground and helped her up to the play structure.  Bella will be starting the same school next month.  It will probably be a tough adjustment initially since Bella has stranger anxiety, but hopefully she will love the place as much as her older sister.
