first time to the zoo.

We took Claire to the Sacramento Zoo for the first time last week & she absolutely loved it!!

Here are some of the fun things we did...

cruised around in the stroller for a bit,

watched & pointed at the birds,

Photobucketgot out & watched a few really neat animals,

Photobucket
like the giraffes (mommy's favorite),


Photobucket
the tortoises (which weren't very exciting), 

Photobucketthe flamingos (who smelled really bad).



Then Jonathan & I decided to take a break, while Claire decided to wave at everyone that went by. She does this everywhere we go, she is quite the social butterfly...

still waving..

How can anyone not wave back at this cute face though...

Photobucket
seriously??


 We had a great time! Next on our list, the Folsom or San Francisco Zoo! Any opinions on which one is better?

She is just the cutest thing EVER and such a great personality, she must get that from her parents. I can't wait to see her (and well you too). For her next zoo visit I vote for the San Diego Zoo so she can see the Pandas.

Ooh, yes, I agree with Grandma G. Make a trip to San Diego! That Clarie is the cutest thing. Lucky you!

She is one of the friendliest little girls I've ever known. No, she IS the friendliest little girl I've ever known!

Seriously, just gorgeous! Love the last pic. And I was kinda disappointed in the SF Zoo, so I say Folsom! Would love to get something on the calendar to get together with you a Melanie and we also need to schedule some picture for Sidney, I've been slacking on that! xo

Changed my mind, I think her next zoo visit should be to the National Zoo in DC. Come visit us and she can see lots of animals including Pandas!

How fun! I want to take Will to the zoo - next time you go, let me know!
I would definitely go to the SF zoo if it's a choice between that & Folsom. Folsom was pretty lame, & the roosters gaurding the exit were terrifying - Will wouldn't stop crying when they kept crowing.
