Elliott’s First Trip to the Zoo!
In celebration of Homer’s very first Father’s Day, Elliott and I took him to the Milwaukee County Zoo (one of our very favorite date spots before we were married.) We bought a zoo pass this year–$125 for a year, good for four people per trip, and parking is included–not a bad deal. We figured it would be a fun and easy outing for us and for Grandma Sue and Grandpa Gar whenever they’re watching her.
The day was overcast, which was great since I hate having Elly in the direct sun. Still, we bought her the most adorable little sun hat. She sported the hat at least half of the day while riding with Dad in the Baby Bjorn.

Look at this cute kid.
It was naptime for our sleepy girl.
Homer and I stayed for about another hour visiting the animals while Elliott slept in her stroller. I loved being there with him on Father’s Day. I love that he is the father of my daughter and am so proud to be his wife. We couldn’t ask for a better man in our lives.
