It occurred to me that we hadn’t been to the Children’s Zoo or play area yet, so I wanted to try it out. Samantha rode the carousel, pet lots of sheep and goats, and checked out Alabama’s Wild. And of course, we couldn’t leave until we took a train ride. At one point in the petting zoo, the sheep started baa-ing. It was surprisingly loud, and all of us were thrown off-guard! And now, she makes a different sound for a pig. Before, it was just breathing in and out sort of. Now, you can tell she’s really trying to snort. It’s funny. It was a quick visit, but well worth it.

No one would ever imagine that Samantha had surgery on Thursday! We went to a Barons game on Friday night and the zoo on Saturday. I’ll post zoo pictures soon. We saw Carson (and family) and Sydney (and family) at the zoo! But, check out the pictures from the last month.

We did get some bad news on Friday though. Our day sitter, Paula, turned in her notice. We’re sad. She is taking over her parents real estate business. I know how much she loves working with kids, so I hope it works out for her. Paula, if you’re out there, we will miss you dearly.
