More Atlanta

Wow! We've been busy, but having lots of fun. Overall, I must say, Joseph is doing really well, considering it's a strange environment and he's very tired! He's had a blast so far. Here's hoping the days with him & Dad are just as fun.

Sunday...Zoo Atlanta

We had a great time at the zoo. Joseph enjoyed running around to all the animals. We got to see the much anticipated baby panda, but all she did was sleep! She's about 3 weeks older than Joseph...too bad he doesn't sleep that much anymore. They have some really great exhibits, and lots of neat animals, but I know who you are all here to see, so I won't bore you with pictures of animals.
Joseph & Dad checking out the giraffes...
He's supposed to be looking at the Western Lowland Gorillas...lots of babies in this family group.

Now, he's looking at the gorillas...
While I was waiting in line to get the tickets for the train and carousel, the lady running the carousel told Jon and Joseph to go ahead and get on, thinking I would be there soon with the tickets! Well, the line was longer than she expected because they were almost done riding when I got through! So, lucky Joseph got to ride the carousel twice. As for the train...OMG! He loved it. Thanks to Mawmaw Mae, he now says "Chugga Chugga Choo Choo" almost all the time. It's cute...but sorry, Mom, it gets a little old!

And, finally, what's the most important part of visiting the zoo? Playing on the playground!!

On Monday we went to the Georgia Aquarium, which was awesome, and Tuesday was a bit more restful. We still managed to wear ourselves out with a visit to Centennial Olympic Park. But...I'm worn out and posting is slow tonight, so those pictures will have to wait. I want to do them justice! There are still more pictures that I want to post from the zoo, but right now, I really want to go to bed, so they (and you) will have to wait! Sorry...more soon.
