Monkeys n' More

I went to the Sacramento Zoo today.  The animals were amazing!

In the last week I've posted animals and babies... uh oh!  next thing you know I'll be posting silhouettes and cliche's.

Babies, Babies, Everywhere!

Since coming back home, I have learned many many things... about babies!  Old friends from high school carry these small people on their hips like I carry my cameras.  Family members spend hours talking about the complexities of sleep patterns and growth rates.  At times these conversations even turn bloody and focus in on pregnancy issues.  Ugh!

In the midst of these "talks" I move my eyes from side to side, desperately seeking someone with whom I can share a "What the f***" glance.  I find myself asking questions like: "Is he supposed to be making those noises?" and "Are you serious??!! ... Really??  That can't be right!"   My Red Cross baby sitting class never prepared me for the infamous "baby discussions." But... to be fair to my new cousins (the photos are of my cousin's baby, Aiden) and my new nephew... they can be cute.  (when they're not screaming or throwing up or smelly)  :-)
