Today we took a trip to the zoo. A girl in our ward that has kids almost exactly Ainsley and Owen's age invited us to go to with them. I was excited to get to do something with an adult. And I'm still desperately trying to get to know people in our ward and be social, so I was very excited. It's also always good for Ainsley to play with kids her own age. We all ended up having a good time even with 2 babies in tow and considering that there were at least 300 local elementary schools that decided to have their zoo trip today as well.
The highlight for Ains was the merry-go-round that she begged and begged to go on (although she doesn't look like it in her picture). Ainsley was a little nervous around the snakes. She really liked the monkeys. She kept begging to go see the penguins (probably because we just saw Happy Feet). We never found it, it must have been in the very back of the zoo. And by the time we were half way through babies were grumpy and we were ready to go. So we had to lie and tell her that they were asleep today. Maybe that will be her favorite part next time. If not, I'll just find a closer merry-go-round for her to ride on so we don't have to drive all the way to the zoo for a ride.
