Zoo Day!

The petting zoo was her favorite by far. She loved being able to touch the goats.





Happy as can be in her stroller. She did such a good job. She was happy and pleasant all day long!

Looking at the Manatee and the fish.
The bottom picture isn't that great, but I wanted to show Avie... this is how she was almost all day. Leaning over her stroller or over us looking and reaching for the animals.
Charlie, Avie, and I took the day and went to the Columbus Zoo as a family and then we spent the night in Columbus. We had such a great time! Seems like someone is always running somewhere, so we decided to take some time for ourselves as a family. Charlie has started his second firefighters course every Tuesday and Thursday night from 6-10 pm and every Sunday from 8-12 pm (with some Sunday's being all day events), and we are alawys running somewhere at night. So we had the weekend away and it was so fun. We decided on the zoo because Avington loves animals! We thought that her favorite attraction was the fish, and then we found the monkey exhibit, and then we found the petting zoo... oh man she had a blast there. I thought she might be scared, but she reached right out for those animals.... then again she lives with Hooch! What a blessing to be able to get away and free your mind from the stresses of work and life in general :)
