Chickens and parks and dogs, oh my!

Lil' Genghis had a fun-filled day, beginning with being a temporary mom to chickens, and going to a great park ... twice! In the last go-'round at the park, Lil' Genghis even got to play with two other girls and three dogs at the same time. Very cool stuff, we tell you, very cool stuff.

Here's some photos:

The one on the right looks so contemplative.

We're not quite sure why she made this face, but it's certainly a face to remember!

Now she has most of a snack bar in her mouth ...

Of course, snacking only holds up so long. So we went to lunch. At a Greek place. With a skylight. A skylight that showed the sky. Up high. Did we mention a skylight? Because someone was kinda fixated on it.

It looked like one of those mean prickler bushes, but turned out to be beautiful on closer inspection.

It was like "Diego" but REAL!

Lil' Genghis met up with her intrepid and entirely platonic friend, Cousin J.D., for a trip to Capron Park Zoo! All four parents took turns carefully pointing out each animal, then turning around and running when they realized the young'uns had alreay moved on.

mom makes this face sometimes, though she doesn't want to realize or admit it ...

Aunt Rebecca wound up regretting the purchase of a Blue Raspberry ice drink thing. Her dentist, on the other hand, probably loved it -- No word on whether her teeth have changed color again! =)

We hope our distant cousins at Grandma Helena's place don't get jealous!
