Toddler Friendships


R was getting better, but she got sick again on Sunday night, requiring another ER visit (and despite various tests, we still don't have a diagnosis: current working theory is a virus). So life continues to be really boring. Poor R is too sick to play with her friends or go anywhere. I tried taking her to the park but she was too weak to get out of the stroller (especially pathetic as generally she despises the stroller).

Instead, here are pictures from yet another zoo visit a few weeks ago. We went with R's classmate P, her favorite friend at school. We bumped into him at the most recent ER visit actually, as he is also sick: school is a vector of disease. They were both on the mend at that point, so had a great time playing tag and chasing each other around after R ate all his snacks (she always does this when they meet, I think because P is French and thus his snacks are better. Luckily P doesn't mind.)
P: he's a few months older than R
Looking at the map together. Love P's outfit as it looks so French
Giraffe
Rhinos
We don't know these people: R just thought she'd make friends
Zebra
Cheetahs
R loves looking at brochures
She carried this around for most of the trip

They greet each other by name now, which is really cute. P had so much fun with R at the ER that he didn't want to go home and had to be forcibly removed. Once they are both better, we'll have to go back to the zoo!
