Face time at the zoo

The vast majority of this post is pictures of Max poking his face through the wooden cutouts as part of the water conservation display outside the primate house at Brookfield Zoo. I probably could have gotten by with fewer photos, but Max was so proud of himself because he posed for each one, I felt compelled to share the best shot from each display — and a few others from this trip. (For the record, this is from Aug. 19, the Sunday before Jack started school for the year.)
