Grace and I were super excited to go on her field trip to the zoo. While getting Carter dressed, I said, "Carter, you ready to go to Mimi's?" He replied, "No, Mimi's! Wanna see lions! Grrr!" And I was all like, "Huh? How do you know we are going to see lions? How do you know we are going to the zoo? How do you even know that there are lions AT the zoo?" Grace said, "Mom, I fink we need to take him." So, now, Grace and Carter were super excited to go to the zoo and I was worried that I might accidentally feed Carter to the lions. (He's been so tough lately...I'm exhausted from fighting a 2 year old) Just kidding, I would never feed him to the lions. I mean, maybe if he climbed in there with them, maybe I wouldn't stop him.
Surprisingly, out of the ordinary, Carter was in a super cooperative mood and we had fun. Just the three of us. We missed Daddy, of course.
Grace was our tour guide. She made every decision with a little guidance from her old wise momma. This was her field trip after all!
He was in such a great mood; I didn't even let him go swimming with the ducks (which are a fav) and the flamingos. He tried really hard though!
A few of our favorites...lions, monkeys, giraffes, and the not pictured camels, pandas, grizzlies.
The elephants were pretty cool too!
We also got to ride the farm train! Choo! Choo!
The end. Oh! Carter is just asleep. He did actually survive the zoo.
