Zoo... Round Two

Nate got home from work around 12:30 this afternoon, so we decided... since it was too cloudy to swim... that we would take Beth and Eric to the zoo!! I've wanted to take them since we went, but I did not want to try to tackle it alone....

They had so much fun! Beth was a little scared at first, but once she realized the animals could not come out of their "homes" she was happy! She got to feed a lot of animals, but would not touch any of the ones the Zoo Keeper took out for us.... We tried so hard to get her to touch the turtle, she always says she wants a pet turtle... but she wouldn't and then got very mad when the turtle walked away!! Beth was not however scared to feed the goats! She told me they all looked liked Charlie!!


Eric was pretty excited too... he had no idea why we kept stopping the stroller to look at these silly things, but he laughed a few times... he was a little less than thrilled when we tried to get him to pet a chicken... his face is priceless!!!! and I just thought this little Donkey was cute! He made his "Heee Haww" noise... that was first time I have ever heard a Donkey!!!




Of course when we came home from the Zoo... we had to hit the pool!!... and then they both took long naps! We also gave Noelle her Mother's Day gift tonight when she picked them up, she loved it!





AND... we left Charlie out of his kennel the whole time we were gone... and he was FINE!!! So no more kennel for my puppy!!
