The "Party"



So, we entered the terrible two's with a bang! We were so excited that Bubbe and Pappa got to join us for the big day. To start off our visit we went to the Zoo. It was a great day to be there. It was sunny, not crowded and we even got to see baby Miles the giraffe just hours after he was born--it was pretty cool! After lunch, it went downhill...Zoe was running after Pappa and tripped! She didn't catch herself in the fall and ended up with a slight gash in her noggin! As head wounds go, it bled quite a bit, but it was a small cut! She was a champ and we finished our afternoon at the zoo. With her new head wound coupled with a "rash" that was spreading, I decided to get her a quick appointment with the Doc. Turn out, she had Hand, Foot & Mouth Disease--sounds lovely right?--and highly contagious! And her small cut was poorly shut with a steristrip. So, we made the calls to her friends and cancelled her party. I dressed her up in her tutu and we had a quiet morning and ate some cake...enjoy the pics. Zoe is sportin' a blue Snoopy band-aid that looks like some sort of 80s sweatband!

Can that be serious? It looks like she had a happy birthday despite the party being cancelled. Miss you!
