Yesterday was interesting- Isaac wouldn't let us put him down anywhere except the room. Man, did I get a workout!! We went out for a walk and looked for a carrier. All we could find were for younger babies. So, for now, my arms will just have to break- small price to pay to have a kid want me to hold him! Before lunch we tried the zoo. We thought the open space might be fun for him to run and play. Not so--he was perfectly fine to watch from our arms. We did get to feed carrots to the elephants-- they had people there to sell things, you just have to pay first or they will try to charge $7 for a bundle of carrots. So we all went back for a nap. He sleeps so well!! We just give him his bottle and lay him down when he's done. He watches us through the crib slats as he goes to sleep- it's really very sweet! And even the crazy loud street noise doesn't wake him! Then last night we went looking for food- we'd heard there was western food a few streets over. Well, no one said it was a Pizza Hut!! I almost cried for joy!! We've been eating pho (Branden likes it way more than me) and lots of bread products. The problem, for me, was the very first trip to the market. THe smell of all the raw meat and seafood was more than I could stand- and I have a pretty strong stomach. And now I remember that smell when I see meat. So- for those travelling later- you might want to avoid the fresh meat part of the markets for a few days! So I REALLY enjoyed that pizza!! Isaac ate minestrone- it was good, too. Then we let Isaac practice walking- showing him we would all stay together even if he walked! We lured him out of the room with a toy and held both of his hands. He let us go all around the hotel and outside to this park across the street to the giant statue of Uncle Ho (that guy is everywhere!). It might not seem much, but a huge milestone for us!
