All Animals, All Weekend!

What a great two days we had this weekend! I hate how fast the weekend goes though, but every week of work gets me closer to the summer when I can be a "stay at home mom". 

On Saturday Charlotte and I went to the zoo with some friends, and it was very fun.  We had great weather, although it was a little chilly when the wind blew, it was sunny.  Charlotte had a great time.  She went down slides, watched animals, ate ice cream, rode the carousel, banged on glass to wake animals up haha and fell asleep in her bob. 

Charlotte loved the carousel, it was her first time on one.  She loved when it went up and down and laughed almost the whole ride.  She had a great time looking at the animals, she was really focused.  As always she loves being out and about and cruising around in the bob.  She is such a joy to take places and easily adapts to all environments which is nice. 

On Sunday Charlotte and I went to see even more animals.  We went to Clarks Elioks Farm with some friends.  It was my first time there, but had heard good things.  It was again a little chilly, but sunny and pretty outside. It was so fun!! They have all the old Enchanted forest things, so it is very nostalgic and fun.  We got to go down more slides (which if I haven't mentioned yet, SHE LOVES), pet the cutest baby goats (seriously they had baby goats smaller than Charlotte), go on a tractor ride, and have a picnic outside. 

Charlotte loved petting all the animals, it was like a real life touch and feel book haha.  She was fine with all of them, until the big cow looked at her and she SCREAMED.  Cows are not her favorite apparently.  Her favorite part of all had to be the hayride.  She loved looking out over the fields and laughed every time we hit a bump.  Clarks was a fun place, and very affordable, only five bucks to get in for me and Charlotte is free, which is nice.  When she gets older, I know Ill miss the days when she was free to get into places. 

We had a great weekend and soaked up a lot of sunshine, every day with Charlotte is a gift and I am lucky to be able to do fun things with her.  I cant wait to see what we get into next!
