Last Monday Lilly Rose and I loaded up the car and headed to the zoo. We met Yaya & Aunt Catherine (who was in town visiting for the weekend) there around 10AM before afternoon sun became unbarring. It ended up being the perfect weather! We had a sunny sky and temps in the high 70s, that is awesome September weather for us in FL. When we arrived Lilly Rose was so excited to see Yaya and was extra cuddly.
This was Lilly's first zoo experience and although she is still quite young, I was looking forward to seeing if she had any reactions to the animals. I think she enjoyed the "big Sophie's" as Yaya called them because Lilly is still obsessed with her Sophie giraffe. The giraffes have always been my favorite. We went on a choo-choo ride and I could tell she loved that. My girl loves to stand and move around, very much a busy baby so getting out of the stroller and sitting with us on the train ride was a treat.
Once we saw the carousel mom said, "we have to do this" and so Aunt Catherine treated them all to the carousel ride. Thanks, Aunt Catherine! Lilly Rose loved it, she was SO funny to watch. I could tell she wasn't sure what to think but was definitely enjoying herself. The part that cracked me up the most was watching her hold on to the bar for dear life, too cute!
