Columbus Zoo

We got a family membership to the Columbus Zoo for Christmas and took full advantage of that and the warm weather this weekend. First, on Friday Elliott and Sophia went to the zoo together. It was Sophia's second time, her first time was when she was only acouple weeks old and she slept almost the entire time only waking for a bottle.

El took her to the aquarium and showed her the fish. She loved it. She followed them around and kept looking at everything. I was shocked when he sent me a picture. I thought for sure she'd still be too young but he said she really liked it.

So on Sunday, Elliott had off and we took another trip to the zoo. I was soo excited to see her check out the animals. It was a bit colder so we only went to the indoor exhibits.

Sophia checking out the monkey's. The baby monkey was born just days after Sophia.

In between each indoor exhibit we put Sophia in her stroller, put her winter hat on her, snapped the bundle me and put a blanket over it to ensure wind wouldn't get in to her. El always says I am too protective, however, I'll do whatever I can to prevent her from getting a cold.

This exhibit was small so we kept her in her stroller. You can see the baby black bear behind her.

She didn't mind being in her stroller, she was just happy to chew on her hands. :)

She loved the fish (def Elliott's daughter)

This turtle followed us and Sophia loved it. She kept following it and smiling.
