On Wednesday, Sophie took her first trip to the zoo. Ben had off work, and we have been talking about going all summer, so we finally went. It was the perfect time to go because it was late in the season, kids were in school, and we went early in the morning, so it wasn't very crowded. We also left just in time before the rain came, so we had perfect weather too.
I started babysitting this week, so the boy I babysit for came along too! Here they are looking at the hyenas.

Looking at the lion.
Giraffes!
Sophie's favorite animal was the orangutang. They were so fun to watch as they swung from one rope to the next.
There was a little farm area, so Sophie got to pet the goat. She's probably one of the few one year-olds that go to the zoo and yell out, "Goat!" when she sees a goat. Thanks to Grandpa and Grandma Miller, she knows what goats are and love them.
All in all, we had a great day at the Ft Wayne Children's Zoo! Sophie will probably enjoy it a little more in the next couple of years, but it was fun to take her.
I love reading your blog and hearing about Sophie's little life and her big discoveries!
