a couple weekends ago we took scarlett to the zoo for the first time.
she loved it!
i love the zoo and since before scar was born i have been so excited to take her. alex was so busy this summer studying and looking for a job that i was almost convinced that we were not going to be able to make it this year. but he surprised me last weekend and we went! it was a perfect 75 degree saturday. which made for a packed zoo.

| this was her the whole time. reaching for everything. |
 |
| poor baby would get so frustrated she couldn't get up close and pet the animals! |
 |
| this was the cutest thing...as soon as alex put her on his shoulders, she threw her arms in the air. so many fun things to see! |
 |
| watching the fish was one of her favorites. |
 |
she's getting to be such a big girl.

she was so excited to finally be able to touch an animal! the children's zoo only had goats for the kids to pet but it made scar happy. although i felt bad for the goats as i'm sure they do not enjoy all the kiddos runnin around and hitting them. ha. but we helped scar be gentle.

| ....the end of the day. |
her favorites were the fish {she will love the shedd aquarium!}, polar bears, bison and everything at children's zoo! oh! they did not have any elephants! bummer. although i guess, good for the elephants.
it was so fun she didn't want to leave. except she did because she was exhausted.
next summer we may just get a membership.
