Sacramento Zoo

Chloe and I also have started going to the Sacramento Zoo with friends. It is so fun for her to see the animals (when they aren't sleeping)!

reading the mapChloe's favorite so far are the flamingoes. (I just looked this up on dictionary.com and it can be spelled either flamingos or flamingoes. Interesting!) I think she likes them because they are bright, there are lots of them, and they are up close where she can see them easily.
First carousel ride. She kept saying "whee!"
l-r Meigan, Faye, Ella, me, Chloe (Jen was the photographer)
not looking so excited here....



The pictures that follow were from a different zoo day, with friends from my mom's group at Arcade Church. Although, Chloe was wearing another green shirt...

Gavin and Chloe were trying to climb in to join the flamingoes

talking with Charles

looking at the giraffes. For some reason, my friends were nervous about Chloe standing on her stroller like that. They made me pose for a picture! I think she was just trying to get a better view. Giraffes are pretty tall, you know!
staying hydrated--it was hot out there!

Elle has this nifty double stroller and the seats can be in a bunch of different arrangements. Chloe loved facing Gavin like this! Looking at the chimps!
worn out after a long morning at the zoo. This picture cracks me up, because it reminds me of how my dad looks when he nods off in his chair--head resting on his hand! This picture is for you, Gramps!!
