This is a bit random, but did you know that Andrew's favorite animal is the hippopotamus?
He has a blanket with a hippo head that we refer to as "binks"... but when he was a baby we called it the "magic blanket" because if Andrew was upset all we needed to do was give him the blanket and he'd stop any and all fussing.
He also has a stuffed animal hippo named "Tubby Wubby."
However, the other day he and Johnny were playing super heroes with their animal friends and Andrew decided to name Binks "Super Flatso" and Tubby Wubby "Super Fatso".
Get it?

And did you know that our Córdoba Zoo has its very own hippo clan?
It was the first time we had seen real ones up close.
They are just as big and round as you imagine them to be.
Andrew was in hippo heaven.

I love this post and love that boy of yours. The first time Hannah saw hippos was at the Denver zoo. They never turned around...so we had a good long look at hippo bottoms. Quite a sight!
AWESOME! The Denver Zoo does have great hippos. In fact, maybe that's the only good thing about Denver. It has great hippos. One of my son's (or do I say sons') favorite animals is a rhino. We once saw one at the Denver Zoo peeing. It, literally, peed for a solid 3 minutes (it may have been longer). We've been talking about it ever since.
