Goodbye to the zoo-Mama.

We closed on our house on Friday. We had originally planned to grab our check, hand over the keys, and take off for Aunt Jenni's house. But when the moment finally came, the Turner family was too exhausted to do anything, so we headed back to our vacation house and slept for 4 hours. On Saturday morning, papa wanted to visit the zoo one last time, so we spent the morning taking our time and enjoying the perfect Wisconsin weather.My family with the giraffes.

Henry insisted on pushing the stroller all day. June was a very good sport about it all.

He made sure June saw all of the animals.

We went to feed the goats, one of Henry's favorite activities at the zoo.

Henry didn't want to waste anything, so he fed the goats one pellet at a time.

When you feed the goats, you usually get 3 or 4 goats trying to get your pellets. All but one goat gave up on Henry pretty fast, because they saw how much effort it would take for not very much reward.

Eventually, Henry fed the goat the whole cone.

I was excited to see the ostrich, just like the one in my Dr. Seuss ABC book that I got from the Cowens.

Mama, the zookeeper, Henro the monkey.



Mama and her kids. She was a little miffed at the playground when someone kept referring to June as the "little guy." Now mama does always dress JB in the girliest of clothes, but she was wearing a pink and white shirt and a big lacy bonnet. We figured that should have been enough.

While waiting for the train, Juner got a big juicy one from papa.

Aw come on papa, we're in public!

But who could resist kissing those big cheeks?

When we got to the carousel, I wanted to ride in the seat, but mama told me that the seats were reserved for people holding babies. And since Juner was with papa, I had to pick an animal. So I picked the catepillar because it was just like the one in my Little Einstein video.
