The Zoo

This past week we spent at my parent's house.  We had a lot of fun, but one of the new things we did was go to the zoo!


It was a bit chilly, but we still got a see some fun animals (despite all the construction too!)
Monkeys, and Rhinos
(This one is the boy rhino, they said you could tell because his horns are rounded since he's more rough and likes to run into things.  The girl's was very pointy and "dainty")
 and Elephants
 I thought the baby one was so cute!

And seals and sea lions
(They were my favorite.  We got there as the trainers came out so we got to see them do fun tricks!)
 and bears (real ones, not just statues)
 although I think E liked the statue ones better
 and tigers...well one tiger
 again, E liked the statue better

 Tyler might have too :)
We also saw the giraffes

 These were my favorite.  I don't remember what they are called, but some sort of monkey...I think
 and Tyler's second favorite...the snakes
Thankfully E wasn't all that interested in them
 The rooster was E's most intriguing animal.  It sat and "cock-a-doodle-doo"ed at her and she just stared at it, occasionally nervously laughing.  It was really quite entertaining.
 E's favorite animal was this type of cat (again I can't remember the name), but it would walk back and forth and she's just sit and watch it for several minutes.
 Too bad both mommy and daddy are allergic!

E's favorite thing at the zoo by far though was Grandma.  She didn't really care about the animals, she just cared if Grandma was holding her.  She also has nothing to do with anyone except Grandma (or Tilly)...not even me!
:(  Although sometimes I'll admit it's nice!
She's definitely Grandma's girl!
