Grandma and Grandpa Russell came to visit Louis for his 1st birthday. They arrived on a Saturday morning and we quickly headed off to the zoo. It turned out to be perfect weather for the zoo. The cooler temperatures meant that many of the animals were outside moving around, including the pandas, cheetahs, and elephants. 
Louis saw every animal we pointed out to him, such as this red panda in the tree.
And this Andean bear.
The zoo recently completed an American section and we were really impressed by the wolves.
Louis enjoyed seeing the farm animals, especially the goats. He got very close to a goat and was almost close enough to this cow to pet it.
Later that day Louis opened birthday presents. Grandma and Grandpa Russell gave him clothes (including a Brown’s jersey), books, and toys. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!
To add to the excitement of the day, Louis impressed everyone by taking a legitimate step. In the following couple of days we’ve been encouraging Louis to repeat the performance. He’s very close to walking!
