Trip to the Zoo

Today Cate and I went to a small zoo in the area. Lately I have been feeling that between work and doing dishes, laundry, and cleaning the house I haven't spent a great quality day with Cate. So I saw that the weather report for today was sunny and warm, so I decided to take Cate to the zoo. We had a great time. She loves to see animals. Each cage that we went to Cate had to say "hi" and "bye" to all of the animals. Today the kangaroos were all hopping and playing, which Cate thought was very funny.

This is a picture of Cate laughing at the Kangaroos.

Here is a picture of a Sloth Bear. She was sitting by the water just hanging out. Cate really liked the bears.

I remembered to bring quarters today so that Cate could ride some of the little rides.


Last time we were at the zoo we saw that they were building a small water park. So today I brought her swimsuit and a towel. I got her all dressed up and ready to go and she had no interest in playing in the water. There was a lot of squirting water and I have to admit it looked a little intimidating. So Cate didn't go in but we will have to try again sometime soon.

Looks like fun
Can't wait for you to be here.

The wading pool will be fun in the yard and the squirting hopscotch.

Tell Eric I found the dragon that goes with the pretty ponies
