Year: 2013

We dropped B off at camp this afternoon. I got to touch snakes, a bearded dragon and a wallaby! Mommy found a porcupine quill on the ground and I got to keep it!

We stopped for dinner on the way home. After dinner I had some really yummy cookie dough ice cream toppings. Since I don’t eat ice cream I still get to enjoy the toppings!

Today we toured Onondaga Caves. We got there a bit early to ensure we were in the first group so we weren’t late getting Breighton off to camp.

The caves were massive!

We saw many bats and some really neat cave structures.

We were the only people on the tour. I guess everyone slept in today! It was nice to have the guide all to ourselves so we could ask all the questions we wanted.

I am definitely getting more brave as the days pass. I am jumping into the pool now! The weather here in St. Louis was a bit crisp and the pool wasn’t terribly warm just yet.

I kept having to take warm up breaks!

We were up really early since we are in a different time zone! We went out and got donuts for breakfast.

We ate one in the parking lot while waiting for Grant’s Farm to open. We are glad we came early because by the time we left the wait was over an hour to get in the door.

We rode the carousel.

We rode a camel!

This was actually pretty fun.

I seem taller to Mommy today!

Feeding the goats was MUCH better this year. Last year they knocked me over and tried to eat me alive.

We managed to get Mommy in a few photos too!

Checking out the kangaroos.

A roller skating scarlet macaw?

Harris hawk that was being naughty and not flying on command.

This macaw was really great at the right toss game.

I loved the barred owl.

The macaw thought he was the Anheuser Eagle!

We fed the goats again from the outside of the enclosure. One mean goat stole my entire bottle, but Daddy was able to rescue it!

We saw an elephant show.

Walking the balance beam.

LOOK OUT!

Last stop was out to see the Clydesdales.

This is Scott. He was very handsome.

Welcome back to City Museum! I am a year older and a year more brave.

A view from on top of the roof in the bus.

I went on the ferris wheel with Daddy with slightly less drama than last year!

Daddy enjoyed playing on all the climbing structures.

I got more and more brave as the day went on. I ended up climbing quite a few things I never thought I would even go near.

Mommy got super brave too and climbed the dome with Breighton. Mommy is in the green.

Up up up she goes!

THis was still my favorite slide. It was super small.

The ball pit was awesome, until it got busy.

Breighton attacked the teenagers with the balls.

We played in the skateless park.

We took silly pictures.

Mr. Steve the Clay Guy was so awesome and made me my own dragon!

We played in the caves.

I liked the gems that were hidden in the middle of the cave.

I tuckered out and needed snuggle time with Daddy.
