San Antonio Zoo

For Christmas last year, my mom got us tickets to the zoo.  We wanted to wait until Brenna was a little older and more into animals before we went and since she's really started to get into making animal noises and understand the animal names, we decided to go while Mike was here visiting.  Of course it was 97 degrees and I'm just starting my 9th month....but hey, why not? 

 

We had a nice time and the zoo had a great kids area with sand and really shallow water.   Next time we will be packing her water diaper and bathing suit for sure.  I think we could spend all day here!

 

 It took a few exhibits before she really started noticing the animals, but the ducks were the first thing that caught her eye.  Of course I had to sing the rubber ducky song then, too.  But she started to point to the animals and we saw a lot of monkeys.  I think the elephant was almost too big for her to comprehend.  On a side note, there was a little boy there that when he saw a bird display, he cried Ca-Caw, just like Brenna.  Nick and I got a big laugh out of that!

Brenna pointing out things on the map.  Such a little tour guide, she was talking and singing in her stroller, waving at people....so funny!
