First Trip to the Zoo

Leah got a chance to take advantage of some Spring-preview weather over the weekend, and made her first visit to Zoo Atlanta. We were able to catch up with the Parness Family, and thank Micah for being our own personal tour guide! Leah loved all of the animals, and waved at most of them. She often said "Hello" to the different animals, including an enthusiastic "Hello big lizard" for the komodo dragon. Leah was very excited to see lemurs, who remind her of one of her tv friends, Zaboomafoo. The pandas were very interesting, and she was lucky enough to get face-to-face with one of them!




Leah is quite fond of elephants these days. They weren't outside yet when we started our tour, but we got pretty close to one of the big guys just as we were leaving the zoo. He was snacking on crunchy green bamboo. Leah heard him crunch, and saw the green stuff, and proclaimed "Broccoli!". I corrected her, and told her that the elephant was eating bamboo. Later in the afternoon, we went to play group and I told the elephant/broccoli story a few times. The last time I told it, I said "....and she said 'broccoli'." Leah immediately corrected ME with "Bamboo!". Nothing gets past our girl!



In addition to our fun at the zoo, Leah had a busy weekend. She had breakfast at Goldberg's with Daddy Erwin & Judy, hit the park at Brook Run, partied with Gymbo at Micah's 2nd birthday, AND went to playgroup at Judah's house. Up this week, we are expecting a little visit from V.V.!!
