We had a great family day Sunday at the Santa Barbara Zoo, with perfect
weather. Cora was in a great mood and really e
njoyed pointing out all the animals. She especially liked the birds, from the colorful tropical birds to the crows on the paths. This was our first time at a zoo since our trip in April to the Los Angeles Zoo with the Partridges.The zoo's setting is gorgeous, with views of the mountains and the ocean and sand. My grandparents used to live very nearby, and I remember waking up to the sound of lions roaring.
Cora this weekend has started saying a new word, and it's one that melts our hearts: when we give her a bit of food, she has started saying "Thank you." This morning at Stroller Strides, I gave her some cheerios and another mom heard her say it and commented on it.
She also says "nana" for food, especially bananas, of course, and she seems to say "mummum" for me. Her favorite word right now is "sadu," which she says often, though we don't quite know what she means.

Those are some lucky elephants! What a view! Looks like a great family day. :) Wonderful to see you all so happy. -jt-
Oh yeah, and is it really necessary to point out how constantly perfect and gorgeous your weather is? Some of us are still in winter, you know! ;)
Actually, on Saturday it was super windy and in the low 50s, and we had a freak hail storm! So there was a question on if the weather would be good enough for zoo-ing.
But your point is well taken. (snicker, snicker)
Glad you had a good day out, if you look back at those other pics at the zoo you can see just how much Cora has grown . speak to you soon Love you all lots Mum and Dad.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
