It sure has been extra cold these past week, but we bundled up and made the trip to the zoo for what they call " zoo lights," they put up over one million christmas lights all over! Raphael was fascinated!! He kept saying "whoa" when he saw the lights. The train ride was fun, he wanted to stick his head out the window and touch the lights. He has learned so much, and "talking" to us, of course its still all gibberish but to him its all words. His sign language has somewhat improved, and his spanish is getting better! His hot wheel cars are his favorite toys. The fish obbsesion is still around, just not that interesting anymore. He is interested in animal sounds though. He is a pro at walking, and mastering running around. He loves, loves strawberries, green apples, bananas, cheese, beans, peanut butter and home made tortillas. He is healthy happy and growing too fast! He is going to make a great big brother!! well its early and i'm off to make breakfast:blueberry/strawberry pancakes!! stay warm out there!
