Maddie Goes to the Zoo

Because Maddie has been around animals since conception, it comes as no surprise that she really loves them. LeeAnn and I have been anxiously awaiting the day that Maddie could appreciate the Zoo. That day was last Thursday during our visit to Boise. It's still early Spring in the Northwest so a lot of the animals were still indoors for winter. However, the great thing about taking an 18 month old to the zoo, is that a squirrel in the vacant giraffe exhibit is just as exciting as seeing the giraffes themselves. Maddie had a blast looking at the animals but what she really loved was walking all by herself on the paths and of course the giant giraffe slide. We had a great time too. Having a kid is a great excuse to be a bit of a kid and experience the wonder of the world all over again. Here are some pics.

Adorable! Thanks for all the fun pictures. My favorite is her standing in front of the lion cage, I love her expression... so calm and cool. LeeAnn, it was so good to chat a little last night, and the margaritas turned out awesome! I missed you when we were drinking them though b/c I was the only one that had some...but if you were here I guess you wouldn't have been able to have some now anyways... sigh... love you friend!
