We had plans to join Nathaniel, Nolan and Ella at the zoo.....and someone woke up with a little stomach issue. Nothing major, just enough to make us all step back. So, after evaluating the situation, we decided to stay home. Bummer.
Well, tell that to a four year old who thought he was going to the zoo.
Enter Emergency Plan B.
A "zoo-like" place close by, with neat animals and exhibits to hopefully suffice the need to see lions, tigers and bears. What about kangaroos, snakes and sheep?
It worked:)
The boys and I went, just the three of us, and had a really great day.
We even had a little brother bonding happening:)
And then .....
Plan B came to life. Petting a BIG kangaroo.....
and then the icing on top -- we were there just in time to feed the baby kangaroo.
It was tiny and acted just like human babies all swaddled up in a moby-like wrap.
Below is the baby sucking it's bottle - and this is the nipple. Let's just say it is made just like Momma. Good thing we aren't kangaroos, if you know what I mean:))
He was a cutie. The lady holding him actually keeps him - at home - for the winter! Yes, just like a pet.
This was the perk of the day!
Unless you don't count the time that Layton actually got to MILK the cow - all by himself:)
or the fact that both boys got to pet a snake. (Note: I did NOT pet the snake! nope, no way)
Plan B wasn't Plan A, but it was still a good plan for our day!
