A month ago ...

Yesterday, the baby turned 13 months old. There was no cake. But there was occasion to look back at last month's celebration, at which there was ice cream cake. Yummy! Messy!



We also took the birthday baby to the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach last month. It was perfect! At the aquarium, the fish are 1) trapped in a small space and 2) always moving. We've also taken D to two zoos, and it's fun, but the animals often just sit and stare, so we aren't really sure that Dietrich realizes they are alive.
