Baby Animal Days

We went to Baby Animal Days for this first time this year! 

It was a lot of fun!

It's just a little event nothing too extravagant or exciting (those are the best kind!), but still a blast!

We started in the reptile tent were Emeri got to hold a baby snake and tortise! 

There were older kids ahead of her who wouldn't hold the snake, but she didn't even hesitate!

I was a little surprised! 

But I guess she's never been told she should be scared of them so she didn't even know to be! 

She loved it and was bummed when her turn was over!

She loved that the mommy tortoise was there with her two babies! She's very much into everything having a mommy and daddy!

We then moved over to the baby bunnies! She had a great time trying to wiggle her nose like the bunnies it was quite entertaining! 

Then over to the baby ducks we went!

 By this point she was done holding animals and was ready to move on to something new so we skipped the chicks and head over to the horse ride line! 

She was really excited to the ride the horse until some guy picked her up to put her on it! If you know Emeri you know that she does not like people touching her especially men and especially men that are strangers, so the ride just didn't start off good for her! But she stayed on the horse even though she cried the whole time!

 Later she told us that she was sad because she wanted a little horse not a big one! 

Go figure! : ) 

To get her back in good spirits we went and got a little face paint on! 

And our silly faces!

Then it was time to ride the train!

It was kind of weird because it was the first thing that we just put Emeri on and let her go!

Braeden turned to and asked "Why does it feel like we are sending her off to kindergarten for the first time right now?" 

Hahaha! 

It's really been the first time that she has been old enough to just let her go and do this sort of thing by herself! 

It just kind of put things into perspective!

Out little girl IS growing up if we like it or not! 

Last stop on the agenda... the bouncy house! 

She loves these things! 

We all had a great time including Baby Ky! : ) 

Seriously does it get any cuter than this? 

Good times! 

I think we will making this an annual thing!
