The duck video

I couldn't get this to upload on the other post...probably too much with two videos!

Family zoo day!


Derek took off work today so we could all go to the zoo! Taylor was of course beyond happy to have dad with us all day today! As you'll see in the videos Taylor had a great time with daddy being there, he is MUCH nicer than mom and will let her in the interactive areas! Taylor and Derek had a great time with the goats, I was pretty freaked out. There were probably about 15 goats just hanging out and the kids could just pet them or whatever. I would say her other favorite part was chasing the ducks. "Duck" was one of her first words so she really enjoyed seeing so many at once!


A day at the farm









On Wednesday we went with my MOPS group to a farm in Gilbert. I was a little nervous being a midwest girl to see what a farm in Arizona would be like! It was definitely different that what I grew up with but we still had a good time. The kids got to pick out their own pumpkin to decorate. Taylor was more interested in just picking them up (as you can see from the one picture above she thought they were really heavy) and sometimes licking them, the decorating wasn't on her agenda. After the pumpkin picking we went on a hayride that took us to the animals. Taylor really enjoyed watching the tractor since we were seated at the front of the wagon. The animals were ok, she wasn't too into them as there weren't too many. There was a maze for the kids to walk through and then we had a picnic lunch. After lunch we called it a day, it was still about 90 degrees!
