Fun at the zoo!

Saturday we took the kids to the zoo. It was so much fun for the big kids and a great listening experience for Audrena! We listened to the gong and practiced pointing to our ear when we heard it. We growled at the bears, rawred at the tigers, baaed at the sheep, mehed at the goats, sssssed at the snakes, and discussed what each animal was and what it was doing. Grandma and Grandpa quacked at the ducks with Audrena and showed her the turtles, which she got so excited about!

I think the best part of the trip was when we watched the two cows in the petting zoo. They were very vocal. Audrena just watched intently as they mooed, and as I mooed back at them. She studied them up close, but she wouldn't touch them. Then as we left, they continued to moo, and she mooed back at them as if to say, "bye bye." It was so cute!
