First Fourth of July

Yesterday, we celebrated our first 4th of July with Abby. It was a great day, highlighted by Abby's beautiful fourth of July outfit from Jen Grover (whose birthday is July 4th - Happy Birthday!).

We started the day with our first trip to church in eight weeks (since Abby has been born). The pediatrician wanted us to wait until she was 8 weeks old to take her to crowded places, such as church. Mama was very excited to get back. Abby did a great job and sat quietly in our arms the whole mass.

Right after church, we headed downtown to pick up Grandma Peggy and go to the zoo. My parents gave Kevin and I a zoo membership for our birthdays and judging from the great time we had yesterday, we'll be back a lot I'm sure! I'm including some pictures of the animals since I want to show off Kevin's camera skills (check out the fish in the seal's mouth!) with our new camera.

It was so hot outside. We had to keep Abby cool as best as we could - Lots of visiting indoor buildings.

Ready to call it a day. But can we come back again soon??
