On Wed. August 5, 2009 Grandpa and I got to take you all the way to the Milwaukee Zoo by ourselves. It was an awesome day. We have many good memories of our day and we hope you do, too.
Here we are just getting to the Zoo. This is the only time you actually sat in the stroller, otherwise you walked.
We rode the Merry go round first. You chose a beautiful horse but then changed to a bear so that Grandpa and I could both stand by you. You always enjoy a merry go round ride.
After the merry go round we rode the train. We always liked the train and so did your mama and Auntie Alissa. You liked it, too.
After the rides, we finally saw some animals. We started with the birds. Your Auntie Alissa never cared for the birds, but you enjoyed watching them.
Then we headed over to Monkey Island. Here you are blowing a kiss to those monkeys.
This is what all little kids like to do at the zoo. Your mama and Alissa did this, too. There is just something so fun about hanging on the fences!
We had a yummy lunch even though a peacock wanted to eat it! Here you are taking care of Grandpa by wiping his moustache for him.
Then it was on to the snakes, you know how Grandma loves those snakes! Just look at my scared looking face! You were very brave and really liked the big fish and turtles, too.
Here is a bear laying in a hammock. We all thought this was very funny!
This elephant mixed up water and dirt and then used his trunk to blow it all over himself. It was pretty funny!
You enjoyed a pink ice cream cone at the Family Farm. You are getting so good at eating ice cream cones.
You loved the playground at the zoo, too. Everything was just the right size for you to do all the activities.
You picked out his big sucker as a souvenior and you sure did enjoy it until...
You fell asleep. I think we wore you out! We were tired out, too.
We ate supper with Alissa and Nathan at their apartment. It was a fun way to end this wonderful day.
Here you are having fun in Cheddah's hat!

This was a great time at the Milwaukee County Zoo. It made me remember those trips we made with your Mama and Auntie Alissa when THEY were little girls.
