What a fun evening.... After work, picked up Olivia, brought her home and started packing dinner for us. We were going to the zoo for the concert in the park and meeting up with Amy and Camden, Elina and her 2 boys. Made some goat cheese pizza and with spinach - very delicious and a cheese sandwich for Olivia (her new favorite), plus some cut up cheese and watermelon. We got to the zoo around 6:15 and decided to go to the butterfly house while we waited for Kurt to get done with work. He got there around 6:40. So we ate dinner and then walked around the zoo. It was such a nice family day. We learned a lot at the amphibian house - the woman working there was so knowledgeable. We went to the polar bear house, Olivia decided she wanted to push the stroller the whole way with no help from us. It was funny, any time we tried to help steer, she would get all mad and say - No hands, I do it myself. Very cute. We stayed there till it closed then headed back home. I think all the walking tuckered Olivia out. So got her home and into her pajamas then put her to bed. She fell asleep pretty fast. The dogs, well - One of them had an accident in the house, so Kurt cleaned that up while I was putting Olivia to bed (Thanks Kurt). After that, we watched Master Chef on Bravo and went to bed.
