For my Birthday this year Dave asked what I wanted to do and I told him I wanted us to go as a family to the zoo. I have been so excited for the weather to improve and to take him all the summery places I remembered going as a kid. Saturday morning came and we had our special Saturday family breakfast complete with eggs, toast, goetta, and bacon (very healthy, I know). We packed up the car for the day and started our drive. Brody talked the entire time that we were on the road, only to fall asleep literally 1 mile from the zoo. When we woke him he wasn't happy but soon cheered up as we headed into the zoo.
I knew that Brody was a little young to understand the concept of all these wild animals and how cool it was that he got to see them but I still thought he would think it was neat. I guess I was wrong because Brody could have cared less about the animals. In fact the only thing he ever noticed was that the camel had a "ball" in its exhibit. Dave picked Brody up to see the Camel and he got so excited. I thought good, he finally gets it but then he just started saying, "ball, ball, ball." Despite Brody finding the animals pretty boring he did have a great time roaming around, and ridding on Dad's shoulders. He ate a good lunch, "skyline", and enjoyed the 4D movie about salmon that we saw. All in all it was a pretty fun trip and I look forward to going there more often once he is a little older.
Latter that night we played out in the backyard while Daddy put in the post for his slack line.
