Today was one of those days that you were so perfect that I just wanted to squeeze you all day long.  We went to the zoo where you got this sweet frog tattoo.

You are totally in a frog phase so it was one of the highlights of your day.  ALL DAY long you kept on pointing to your arm and saying "Frog.  Mama frog."  Ridiculously cute.

You took this picture.

Look at your perfect face in the third picture!  I can't take the cuteness in that picture.

And on top of your cuteness, it was so awesome how interested in the animals you were.  You LOVE animals so it isn't a huge surprise but I wasn't expecting such an attention span.  You were totally into really seeing and examining all the animals.

You were so stoked to see that frog and you kept pointing to it and saying, "Frog" and the second picture is a turtle.  I'm pretty sure you and your sister were waiting for that turtle to move so when it finally did (surprisingly fast) you guys were pretty stoked.

We are going to go back next week and see the farm animals.  I know you would love to see a cow, neigh, and bunnies.

After a THREE hour nap (you have not taken a three hour nap since you were a tiny baby), we went to get sandwiches and you kept making this adorable face:

When we were leaving, this catchy song started to play and there you were dancing in the middle of the restaurant.  So cute!

You loved the holding of the coins when we were making wishes in the fountain and you were majorly stoked about your dog balloon - even though it looked NOTHING like a dog.

That dog by the way lasted about 2 minutes till you made him into a snake and then completely popped him.

Once we got to the park, you, of course, were running EVERYWHERE and doing EVERYTHING.  You made a few temporary friends and attempted your usual tactic of attempting to touch every surface before we go.

You do all this, as always, with an adorable smile on your face.  And as we walked back to the car, you wanted, "Up mama Up" and you snuggled with me.  As already independent as you are and with your sister going all independent on me, the snuggles made me feel better tonight.

So I guess, you both can keep growing up if I'm guaranteed snuggles at the end of the day.  If you must that is...
