On Halloween we drove just outside of DC (to Rockville, MD) to visit 2 of Morgan's college friends Helina and Mariam who are working in DC. We didn't dress Elijah up for Halloween except for this cute pumpkin hat and little black trick or treat outfit. We had a monkey outfit that we borrowed from a friend, but we were on the road and never had a chance to put it on. Maybe we'll put it on now and take some pics and pretend it was on Halloween.
Bruce and I spent a day touring around DC while H and Mar were at work on Thursday. We were so tired after a full day of walking - we saw the Washington Monument, the White House, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, Lincoln Monument, Korean Memorial, WWII Memorial, the Capitol -- phew, what a day! Then we spent a lot of the day on Friday at the Zoo (which is FREE since it's a Smithsonian). Elijah loved looking at all the animals and he was such a trooper with the long days. It was so cute, he thought everything was a "doggie" - he kept panting like a dog (his baby sign for dog). Here's some pics from our time in DC:
We found a USPS Jedi Master! Bruce thought it was cool.
Elijah got tired of being in his stroller and would try to climb out! Then he fell asleep on Mar on the Metro on the way home.
Just a couple pics from the zoo - Elijah with Helina and the panda bear. The second one is us with the lion on the left in the background. We got to hear him ROAR and he walked all around, which I guess is rare because they sleep or lay around like 90% of the time.
