1st Trip to the Zoo

To celebrate our anniversary, we decided to take Caden too the Zoo. It was so much fun! We haven't been to the zoo in a such a long time that it was exciting to see all of the old and new animals that they had. Going through it brought so many memories back of when I was a child. I can't wait to create those fond memories for Caden. We are off to great start! Caden loved the zoo! He was kicking his feet and pointing at all the animals jibber jabbering at them.
This spider web was so cool. Caden wasn't too interested in climbing all over it, but give it a year and I know he'll like it. But when daddy went with him it was more intrigued with it. There were little areas all along the way of things that the children could sit on or play with. I love how interactive the zoo is, what a great learning experience for them.
Caden was checking out the small monkeys that were through the glass. They weren't doing too much since it was right about their naptime. This lion cart has been at the zoo since I was little, you can feed it paper. He says a little jingle which is really cute. He goes " Roar, oh don't be afraid, I only eat paper. Paper, paper, paper, I love paper." Caden was feeding him a tissue, he giggled when it sucked the tissue up out of his hands. He really liked the lion, especially the nose. I can't wait to take our next trip too the zoo, the butterfly pavillion should be open by then, as well as maybe the penguins. Maybe we'll get to the Omaha zoo this year too.
