Fun at the Zoo!

Ella has me up at 6:30 this morning...that is about what time she gets up during the week...so of course on the weekend she's ready to roll at 6:30...so I got up and went and got her....and heated up a pancake for her (I made a big batch last week and froze some).

Josh came upstairs around 8...and said are you ready?? To which I was like ummm no....ready for what? And he said....remember we talked about it last night...we're going to the zoo...and I was like ummm no I don't remember that...he really had me believing that we had that conversation...but he was just teasing me....we didn't have that conversation...he thought of it himself...so I got ready....and we walked out the door around 9....so we start off...and Josh pulls out...and I say..."don't we usually go 130?"...he says..."I don't remember....lets just go to Charlottesville and get on 81...." well 2 hours later we get to the zoo....hahhaa....I tried not to rub it in too bad...that my 35 minute trip was the right way to go....and not his way....but it worked out because Ella slept for about an hour in the car...so that was her nap for the day...she just took a morning nap instead of an afternoon one!

So we finally get to the zoo....Ella felt safer in her stroller...and didn't really want to get out....





However...she FINALLY warmed up and once she saw Josh and I feeding the animals...she wanted to check that out...




She liked the camel...she was too scared to feed him...but she did pet him a few times. 

Then we moved onto the goats....she kept saying "hi" to them...and calling everything "her friend"...





I think she enjoyed herself! There's a little smile there!



She did keep calling some of the animals "puppy"....and there were all these roosters walking around...she really wasn't a fan of those.

It was perfect weather....the day started out at about 60....but then warmed up to 75ish...perfect weather!

On the way home we stopped and got lunch at Sonic...and then came home....we relaxed for a little bit and I let Ella play to get some energy out....then I took her to the grocery store with me. And that was our Saturday!

Tomorrow I have nursery at church, a Baby Shower to go to at 3, I need to make lunches for the week, and make some kind of dessert for a dinner Monday night, and finish house work...it's going to be a busy day!
