A beautiful day at the Zoo and a yoga class together

Yesterday, we went to the zoo. It was a gorgeous day. Sun was shining. We met Cheryl and Jordan there and Grandma and Grandpa came along too. It was a family affair. We saw a giraffe mama and her giraffe child necking and being affectionate with one another. It was super sweet to see. We walked around and saw many animals and then we ate lunch in the crowd of the zoo cafeteria. It was a very nice day.
In the evening, Ariel came over for dinner. It was great to see her. Johari was digging her and really enjoyed playing and teasing her and getting gotten by Ariel.
Today, we tried a mama and tot yoga class in Seattle. Johari really had a great time. She didn't do much yoga but she played a whole lot and was very outgoing. She would venture out to play without me quite a bit and then come and check back in with me eventually. I got to do some yoga so maybe we will try to do that class with some kind of regularity. Good times for mama and Johari, can't go wrong there.
Johari's bottom incisors are coming up and cutting through. So soon she will have her full toothy smile grown in.
I did a bit of research because of the constant info of the horrors of plastics...to find a metal sippy. And I got one that I think is pretty cool. It is seems to be well made. And they have another one with a straw as well.

Although they sell these at some Target stores, they do not put it in the baby stuff. It kind of irks me because then no one will ever run across them while shopping for a good sippy. It is in the sporting goods water bottle section!
More Johari updates....she can now walk down the few little steps in front of the house without holding a hand or onto anything. She loves to play pretend now. She pretends to prepare food for people. As soon as she gives you the imaginary food, she eagerly asks if you want more. She loves to keep supplying people with more and more of her tasty morsels.
