Fun at the Zoo



So, Sunday seemed like a great day to take Addie to the zoo for the first time. The weather was gorgeous, only a little bit cloudy. And, it wasn't too hot, which was great. Addie's cousins -- Caitlin, Cole and Amelia Kate -- were on hand as personal guides for the event. Caitlin and Amelia Kate ("the earring girls") rode in a wagon while Cole pushed/pulled. And, Addie got a special seat in her "Cadillac" stroller. She loved the monkeys and the giraffes. She also loved riding the train. She kept pointing and throwing animal crackers at the animals. I guess she thought they were hungry? She obviously was because she ate the ENTIRE time were were there! ha!




Anyway, first zoo outing was a success. I will say, I was impressed with the Baton Rouge Zoo. They have a new Tiger exhibit that was really great. And, it was very clean and the animals looked healthy and happy. And, the area has so many trees that the entire zoo is in the shade!
