Happy 2nd Birthday, Imogen!

Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday our dear Imogen!
Happy Birthday to you!

Our 'baby' turned 2 today. I'm not sure whether to be happy or sad, but I'm leaning towards happy. I love all the wonderfully coordinated and independent things she does now! It's so fun and interesting to see her personality develop right before our eyes.

To celebrate her birthday, I took the day off work and we went to the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium. It was not Imogen's first time there, but it was her first time there where she could really look at and name the animals. She loved it! I think her favorite animal of all was the tiger. They only had one tiger in the forest today (although, I think they have 4 total) but he was playing in the water and entertaining us a lot. She also really liked the fishies, ducks, and birds. Go figure -- all things we see a lot when we're NOT at the zoo! Here are a few pictures from the day:

Pretty girl!

We were all tired by the end of the trip! But we had a great time!

Happy 2nd birthday to our beautiful little girl -- we love you!
