zoooooo....

i told you october was really busy! i even got to go to the zoo with my friends olivia and samuel. mama, as usual, took my picture with the baby elephant. look--i'm taller than her now!!!

my friends and i were trying to make the elephant move by pushing her, but she just wouldn't, so we took a picture by her all together instead of trying to get her to come walk with us. i don't know why this animal (a favorite word of mine now) doesn't move. i like elephants. i like how they move their big, long nose and make a trumpet sound...i do it well too. my favorite animal at the moment is a giraffe (pronounced "gaffe"). i could stand there and watch those tall guys forever. when we were there, mommy kept saying, can we go now? and i kept telling her NO! i didn't understand why she kept asking when she knew the answer.

it was a neat day though. we got to hear the lions roar and see the bears up really close and the kangaroos too (look at me and samuel). then olivia and i sat and watched the polar bear swim back and forth and back and forth. that was so cool!
