first tooth! and Siggraph in review

Zoë's first tooth has finally made an appearance... well, what I mean is that I can feel its sharp bumpiness... but we can't get her to grin and show it yet. (its the bottom front left one).. the ones on top and the front bottom right one are close too.

More updates: we just returned from a week in San Diego at Zoe's first SIGGRAPH.. she even has a badge with her name on it. (which is why we haven't posted anything in a while).
During our trip to San Diego, Zoe & I went to the Hotel Del Coronado... with some of the prettiest sand I've ever seen (only rivaled by Siesta Key, FL).. the sand appeared to have flakes of gold.. maybe the picture will show it, I doubt it though. Of course, Zoe found a 5 year old to play with.. the girl wasn't very keen on sharing her bucket, but her mom persisted and after half an hour and a small bribe from me (an very tiny, whole sand-dollar).. they warmed up, traded toys, and played in the sand.

We also went to the San Diego Zoo, where we received a personal tour (Sam's uncle Don) of the reptile exhibit.. Zoe slept through all of that.. but Bruce, Sam and I loved it. The only animal I remember Zoe really interacting with (ie intently watching and calling after) was a hyena... it was grooming itself, chewing on its paws.. it was amazingly beautiful.. very fuzzy.. Zoe call it "doggy" and "Molly".

pictures soon.
