THE ZOO!

Well, Addison has officially had her first trip to the zoo! I have very fond memories of family trips (zoo, Seaworld, etc.) and it is really important to me that Addison has the same. Most days I can't remember what I wore the day before, but I can vividly remember our family trips. So since we were already in town for the baseball playoffs we took the 2 hours off we had, and made a quick trip to the zoo (hoping mainly to see the monkeys). Addison had fun, but of course she will enjoy the zoo much more when she is a bit older. Either way it was a fun morning and it was worth seeing the smile on her face while she watched the animals!

A spectacled bear... I knew what this creature was BECAUSE of our friend Dora the Explorer! Now don't say television can't be educational

The pretty pink flamingos

The quack quacks were pretty impressive to Mrs. Addison! She recently learned what a duck says, so apparently she is now in love with ducks!

If I would have let her she would have jumped into the pond with the fish, she's fearless.

Daddy took some great pictures of the birds!

Keeping her eye on them...

Checking out some more monkeys... boy do we love monkeys!

Watching the baby ducks swimming in the pond! She giggled so much, apparently she thought they were pretty cute!

Not quite sure about all of this...

The goats in the petting zoo. Mom was a little scared of the horns being too close to my Addi.
