Giant Pandas

Well considering the week the world has had, I decided to share with you some good news!!

Mei Xiang (pronounced May Shong, meaning beautiful fragrance) the giant panda in Washington DC has had a baby. It is her first birth and she seems to be caring for the infant well. Zoo officials have not been able to determine the sex of the cub, Mei is doing a great job as a mother and they do not want to disturb them.

My son and I have been watching in on a panda cam set up in Momma's pen, the cub is very small but go and check it out! Oh it is so cool to see her clean him and cuddle with this little cub!!! Bookmark the spot for in days to come hopefully the cub will grow and be more visible!

Something wonderful happening in Washington is a rare thing these days!!!!
