Birthday at the Zoo

For Kaelyn's first birthday we headed up to Michigan to visit Em's family. On Saturday we went to the John Ball Zoo in Grand Rapids. It was a beautiful day, but little did we know that it was the Zoo Boo that day, so it was a little crowded and crazy, but still a lot of fun. As you already know, Kaelyn loves animals, so we thought the zoo was a great place to go to celebrate her birthday.

The Fam

Kaelyn had this hat that daddy got her that said "I'm One!" Since she didn't have a costume like all the other kids, we thought she could wear her hat instead. She didn't really like it though. :)

There was a guy playing the guitar and singing and Kaelyn was dancing along with Grammie.

Then this kid (I'm really not sure if it was a boy a girl, kind of dressed like a girl, but running around like an out of control boy) :) came up and started dancing with her - it was really cute, but Kaelyn was a little overwhelmed. Kaelyn and Auntie Lo. I'm not sure what animal we were looking at here, but Kaelyn obviously wanted to pet it!

Walkin' with Aunt Lo and Aunt Rachie. She was still a little unsure on her feet, and with all the people, it was best we kept her close.

The whole gang, too bad Kaelyn wasn't so interested in the picture. :)

More birthday pics to come soon!
