ZOO WITH CALLEIGH SUE :)

On Sunday, we went to the zoo with Rayn's best friend, Calleigh.  Calleigh and Rayn are similar in size, have similar personalities and get along a majority of the time, before they start "tattle-telling" on each other. (It comes with the age.) :) 


At the zoo, we took the wagon, packed our lunch, and took the girls in. Overall, because of the 90+ degree weather, we didn't get to see that much, but what we did get to see the girls truthfully enjoyed. 


This is the first time I have taken Rayn to the zoo this summer. I really enjoyed her looking at the animals and watching her brain turn and wondering all about each different animal. What do they eat, mom? Do they swim? Do they walk? 


The number one question of the day, which was my favorite and if you know Rayn well enough, you will laugh out loud, too. Below is our conversation at the beginning of every new animal.


Rayn:  "Mom, is this animal locked up?"
Me: "Yes, Rayn they all are, remember?"
Rayn: "Okay, I'll go look."


(For the record, she is not a big fan of animals...she is very hesitant on going any place with animals. She is also allergic to certain animals, which doesn't help.)


Lastly, after we arrived home from the zoo, she told her dad that her favorite animal was the ostrich. Really? We didn't even see an ostrich, she sat on it on the carousel and that is it! ;)



Getting splashed by the puffins! It was so silly, as Rayn would say.


So sweet...as Lissa says sometimes they are the best of friends and sometimes....you don't know what is next.

So sweet! :)

Answering the question...Which animal are you going to sit on?



MAGIC HOUSE

One Wednesday this summer we took Rayn and her new little buddy to the Magic House. You can see in the pictures below all of that fun that they had together. They were so cute playing and doing all of the fun "magical" things that the Magic House had to offer. Rayn always wanted him to sit by her and to do what she was doing. Even though it didn't always work that way, she stilled tried.



Watch out they are going on a date! The older one is driving...




Trying to fish just like her Papa taught her....
