Jack made some new friends this week. Jenna took him to the zoo with her sisters and two other children. He had a wonderful time. He took a 2 hour nap when he came home (completely unheard of in Jack land), so I know they did a good job of tiring him out.

Here he is in a double-wide stroller with his new little friend. Even though they were 3 years apart in age, they got along quite well.
















He rode the carousel with Jenna:


























Although once it started he did try to climb off:
















He sat on a tractor:


























and also with his little new friend:















I find this amusing because when I took him to the zoo a while back, he absolutely REFUSED to sit on the tractor. Or stand in the hay. Or even smile at me. I suppose this time he was in a better mood.

It is very funny to see him interact with other children. Here his friend is playing tour guide:
















And teaching him how to relax:


























(You can see Jack trying to pull off his socks. He refuses to wear anything on his feet, even if it's freezing cold outside.)

We have a busy weekend ahead of us. Uncle Travis is coming for a visit, we have a holiday party tonight, a birthday party tomorrow afternoon for Great Grandma, and a Santa Claus party tomorrow evening at Julie and Mac's house. I don't anticipate he will like Santa any better this time!
