A couple more

Turns out I had some other pictures from the trip to the animal farm.

Zoe goes zoo-ey

We took Zoe to the Claws 'n' Paws Wild Animal Park (http://www.clawsnpaws.com/) and Miss Z was a very happy two-year-old.  She fed carrots to the giraffe Twiggle, spent a while in the petting zoo with the sheep and the pygmy goats, and swam in the alligator pond.  (No, she didn't really swim with any gators.)  She also got friendly with a triceratops, which sounds suspiciously like a five-year-old who insisted on meeting Uncle Beasley in 1971 or '72.

Here are some pics from the day.

A smattering of pics

 

Here's a bunch of recent pictures, most of which aren't particularly good.  (Oh yeah?  Well, you try snapping a quality shot with one hand while holding a 28-pound girl in your other arm.)

 

The picture of Zoe and Barbara in pink is by Ellen Datlow.

 

There's also a new video of Zoe as she roamed the halls of the Burlington Marriott last weekend: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zYl73ZfK28

A little watermelon

We went to a party on Sunday and Zoe had lots of fun playing in the pool and pushing around Super Grover in the stroller, but the only video that came out was a short clip of Zoe passing up some watermelon.  You can find it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iaPxyeq4Bnc

New video of Zoe

I haven't taken any new pictures of Zoe lately, but here's a link to a new video of Zoe playing with a neighbor's cat: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcVY6Xlcpe0

Zoe goes to the park

Here are a few shots of Zoe at the nearby park.

 

I've also posted some new videos of Zoe

Her future's so bright she's gotta wear shades

Cousin Caren sent Zoe some sunglasses for her birthday and Zoe has taken to them.  (Cousin Caren did not mention whether these sunglasses are the same ones that Zoe's grandmother wore circa 1962, but I suspect they are.)

Now We Are Two

 

Zoe celebrated her second birthday with a delicious cupcake, which she greatly enjoyed (as you can see for yourself).  She also received Play-Doh and blocks and got to stay up late to watch NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN (just kidding!).
