pictures

Since Elias has been home sick with strep throat, I found some time to download and post some new pictures from May.  (Oddly enough, I still haven't found time to do some major needed house cleaning...)

At the zoo.  We were supposed to meet other adoptive families from my church, but we couldn't find anyone.  Oh, well; a nice day at the zoo anyway.  Elias is decidedly unimpressed by "exotic" animals, having seen and read about them just as much or more than "normal" animals.  He liked the tiger, but by the time we got to the polar bear he decided to pull out his Thomas book to keep himself entertained.

Visiting the next-door neighbors' horses.  This was one of the very rare times I've gotten him to smile for the camera, although it doesn't look like it was easily done.

At M's birthay party.  Here he's eagerly waiting for a bucket of water to fill and spill on his head.  He loves the water and takes weekly swim lessons through his daycare.
