Wild Animals

and I'm not just talking about Fischer and me! ;-)

Last weekend I went to visit Fischer in Springfield and we headed to the Dickerson Park Zoo there. The weather was great and I had such a good time checking out all of the animals. My favorite part was feeding the goats and donkey. I wasn't the least bit scared of them (much to Mommy's surprise)! I walked right up to them with the food in my hand and let them eat right out of it. I am getting to be such a brave big boy!

Shhh...the lion was taking a nap...

I liked seeing the geese with their babies in tow...

And the elephants are some of my favs!

Cash even woke up (for a little bit) to check out the zoo!

Here we are posing for our yearly zoo pic in front of the baby elephant statue. Not only are Fischer and I bigger, but we've grown a whole additional person this year! :-)

For comparison:

My first trip to the zoo at 6 months old...

And last year at 18 months...

And to finish out the day we stopped off for some Andy's custard. Yum-O!

Here I am tearin' up some Andy's! ;-)
