After breakfast, Matt's Grandma read him a couple of books. He then waited in the car with his grandparents while I voted and picked up our library passes. Then we went to the zoo!
Matt got to get up close and personal with lemurs, gorillas, and more.
The lion, of course, was sleeping.
Saying hello to the ostrich
Walking on his own through the bird exhibits
Chasing down some peacocks
We had a picnic lunch in the park before returning home to wait for Jon so we could celebrate.
While we were waiting, Matt stole my cookies.
And the birthday boy requested as many laps in his Batmobile as possible.
Birthday decorations
After a dinner of meatballs in chunky tomato sauce with rainbow bow tie pasta, it was time for cake and ice cream.
Studying the cake
Checking out the candle
Feeling a bit overwhelmed
Poking at his piece of cake
Time to open presents yet?
Ripping off the wrapping paper
Unpacking the boxes
Reading one of his new books
Helping Jon assemble his new ride on toy
Talk about a busy day!
