Phoenix Zoo

While Dad, Grandpa Pulsipher, and Uncle Toby were hunting, the women decided to take the kids to the Phoenix Zoo for the day. Aunt Becky has a pass so we went and had a good time. Thanks, Aunt Becky! We ate lunch, thanks Grandma, and then started walking around. It was fun to watch the kids and their reactions to the animals and to let them play for a little while, too. It was also nice to get out of the house, since I seem to be stuck at home a lot... with babysitting and Kris hunting on the weekends for 10 days or so in November.

Cousin Fun at the Zoo- Kaylee, Jonathan, and Isaac

Jonathan was so cute to hold Kaylee's hand but Isaac just wanted to be free.

More monkeys... (I can't remember what kind the monkeys are right now... duh!) After watching the monkeys, Kaylee has started cleaning out lint or fuzzies from between her toes. I don't know if she saw them doing it or it's just something that she has learned on her own. Anyways...

Kaylee watching the monkeys. She was so excited- as you can tell by her facial expression!

Grandma Pulsipher and Kaylee- Kaylee is saying what a monkey says, "Ooo, Ooo" and doing the action.

The turtles were mating while we were there and when we walked away, Kaylee was "mooing"! I was a little confused at first, but then caught on that the turtle was grunting and she thought it sounded like a "moo". I thought I might have to explain to everyone why my daughter thinks that turtles "moo". Thankfully, she has forgotten! It was an educational day at the zoo.

Kaylee usually loves animals, but this horse was so big that it was a little intimidating for her.

Kaylee and the monkey... she didn't really care to sit here.

Kaylee and the crocodile... I love this pose and facial expression!

I don't know why but giraffes are just so majestic looking when they run. It was so cool!

Kaylee's friend, Boston, was at the zoo so we stopped to visit a few times when we saw them.

It was a fun day at the zoo! Thankfully it was nice weather, too... not too hot and not too cold. Thanks Grandma and Aunt Becky. It was fun to see everyone and to watch the kids play with each other and get excited about the animals!
