Home Depot, Baby Animal Days

Today was a busy day. We went to home depot to build a birdhouse for their monthly kids activity. It's a lot of fun, and it's right up my mom's alley! She loves things like this, and thinks is so cool to teach Sophie about using tools and building things.


Sophie's favorite part is painting. She gets really into it. She had a lot of fun. We made a bird feeder and can't wait to get some birds around. What a fun Grandma outing!

After our craft we had an Easter Egg hunt. Sophie loved the idea of collecting eggs, and loved it even more when she realized there were treats in them!


We met up with the Bettolo's and headed to Baby Animal Days in Logan. I had heard great things about it and wanted to check it out. I was pretty disappointed though. I could have gone in my backyard or to IFA and had less people and more time to see and pet animals. Oh well, live and learn. We had a few good experiences. Sophie loved riding the big horses.


She kept saying "weeeeee" and thought it was so much fun. She'd reach forward and pet the horse too. It's funny because my parents have horses and she's always been afraid of them. We had a barnyard party and she wouldn't ride the horse at all. I'm glad she liked it today and hope we can ride more this summer.


The lines were way too long, but we got to pet a few things: piggies, baby lambs, goats, horses, and rabbits.


It was a nice warm day and good to spend time with the family. That night we went out to eat for my birthday and then went to Kangaroo Zoo. Man, Sophie LOVED it. She was a wild woman. She was climbing the huge slides like it was no big deal. We were there almost two hours and she was so sad when we had to leave. What a fun Saturday!
