Milwaukee Zoo Experience

The last time I entered a post was in July, now it already the middle of August. Part of the reason was because my computer caught a virus and was out of commission for about 2 weeks. But, we are back up and running now and our latest new adventure for Olivia was the Milwaukee County Zoo. We went last Friday and she had a great time. The weather was stormy and we had to wait out a rain storm right after lunch but that made the crowds at the Zoo very thin which was nice.

Unfortunately they shut down the train ride before we had a chance to get on it which was disappointing but Olivia did get to ride on a camel and also got in another pony ride.
She liked that a lot and loved seeing all the animals we read about in her books. The monkeys were especially funny and with the glass enclosures you can really get an up-close look at them.

These pony rides were nice because they put a belt around her so I didn't have to walk along with her. This was her first time riding a horse "ALL BY MYYYYY-SELF!"

It takes so long for summer to get here but now I am counting down like everyone else.......three weeks from today is the first day of school!! Yea!!

Olivia will be home with me for another year before she starts any school. Right now the playgroups are enough and a year from now when she is 4 we will be getting her ready for preschool and soccer practices. Time sure flies with a little one around. Stay tuned.....
