Zoo Visit

Anna and I headed to the zoo last Friday.  We were going to go with some friends, but no one was able to make it, so it was just Anna and me.

The zoo was having a special exhibition of animatronic dinosaurs.  Anna didn't like them at all.  The movement and the roaring scared her more than anything.  It was all I could do to get a picture of her next to the T-Rex that didn't move.
Her very favorite part was watching the Ruffed Lemurs.  One was pacing back and forth, I think guarding the babies, and Anna couldn't get enough of it.
The tigers were fun and paced in front of her several times.  After eating lunch, we headed home.  Anna was beat and so was I.

Water Baby

Anna went 'swimming' for the first time today.  Her friend, Kaylee, invited her over to try out their new wading pool.  Exciting!  I finally got to have Anna try on her bathing suit.  She was so cute!
She wasn't quite sure what she thought about the pool at first.  I had to get in to coax her in.  Then, she would only stand.  I asked her to sit and she'd squat down just far enough for the bottom of her diaper to dip in, then she'd stand up real fast.  She did slip and fall on her bottom once- she didn't like that.
After spending about 20 minutes in the pool, Anna was done.  She wandered the yard and ate strawberries and chased bubbles.  We ended up spending almost two hours hanging out with our friends.  What a great day!
