The zoo with Grammy and Pappy!

My Grammy and my Pappy came to visit us this week!! That was great. It meant no naps, lots of treats, and plenty of people to play with my big brother and me whenever we wanted!!



Here we are on the way to the zoo. Mommy, Daddy, Conner, and I go a lot, but Pappy has never seen this zoo. It's one of my favorite places, even though I couldn't take my shoes. Mommy was afraid I'd lose them since I LOVE to play with them. As you can see, I was a happy girl anyway!

I did take just a LITTLE nap on the way, though. My thumb makes me very sleepy.


Here is my big brother on the merry-go-round. He chose the zebra all by himself, but Grammy had to help him climb up and hold on. Probably because he's a boy.
He had a lot of fun, though! I think my Grammy did too.
Next, Conner got to ride a LLAMA! I got to ride in my stroller all day, so I wasn't jealous. You can see that he holds on very tightly.

The llama seems to like him a lot! Mommy and Daddy like to read us stories about llamas, so it must know that.
My big brother is a great llama rider.

Next, we went straight for the camel rides! This time Conner rode with Grammy. I spent some time looking at the biiig elephant and talking to him, too. Grammy did NOT know how big those camels were! I enjoyed watching them ride by and talked the whole time.
Conner forgot to smile!

Grammy looks relieved to be getting off that tall guy!
The next thing we did was have ice cream and shaved ice. I got to have some of both, and so did Conner. Look at all that ice he had to eat!!!


Sometimes Mommy or Daddy pushed me, and sometimes Grammy or Pappy pushed me. It was a nice switch! Conner always had to stay with a grown-up.
I was watching both the flamingos and my big brother. I LOVED those flamingos! I pointed to them, and I waved to them, and I talked to them, too!

Grammy is laughing at me talking to the birdies. Conner was telling us he wanted to go see the alligators.

My Pappy was a good pusher.
Mommy and Daddy kept telling Conner to hold hands. They meant they wanted him to hold a big person's hand, but he just kept holding his OWN hands! What a silly big brother he is!

Grammy is hiding from the camera! Silly Grammy! Pappy is being a good boy and smiling. I rewarded him by letting him hold me later.





I was having such a GREAT time!! I had my sippy, and I had suntan lotion all over me, and there were lots of things to look at.

WOW!!! Look at Conner on this BIG lizard!!!

I was just being silly here.


And now we're leaving the zoo. Sigh... Conner was pretending to be a monkey. He kept swinging with Mommy and Pappy! We had a FANTASTIC day at the zoo, and I can't wait to go back!

Neither can Conner!
