Zoo and PF Changs

This morning we went to the zoo. The zoo in December!! It was close to 40 degrees out so we decided to give it a try, plus we still have our zoo pass which we have to renew soon. Cassie fell asleep on the way there. When she woke up we had just pulled into the zoo. She got a big grin on her face and yelled "oooo!!" Interpreted she was saying "Zoooooo!" She couldn't say the "Z" sound. She was very excited to see the monkeys so we headed there first but on the way said hi to the penquins.

The weather wasn't to bad, we were all bundled up so it was pretty nice. A bit later it started to drizzle so that wasn't the best and it started to get miserable. We put Cass in the stroller, along with a blanket over her lap and zipped thru the zoo. We made a stop at the dairy cows to see Cassie the cow. This was a picture I posted a while back.





Bad news...Cassie the cow could be frozen in your freezer right now or on your plate for dinner tonight. They sold her for meat. Yep. Poor Cassie. But....her daughter "Fern" was there to take her place. Out with the old, in with the new. We talked to someone there, she said once the cows have babies that can produce milk they sell the mothers for meat and the babies take their place. :o( Infertilty sucks but I think in this case...if I was a cow...I would want to be infertile.

After the zoo we went to PF Changs for lunch. Matt kept saying it was the first time she had been there but I corrected him. She had been there the day before she was born. We had gone there to eat some spicy food to get labor going....which apparently worked. I thought we were going to have a melt down there. We got Cassie some chicken with dipping sauce. The definition of dipping sauce to Cassie is this......Ranch Dressing. She started yelling for "dip". I told her the sweet n sour sauce was the dip and she kept insisting it wasn't.....oh oh. Thankfully she decided it would suffice and dipped her chicken in the non-ranch dip.

On our way home she fell asleep. I was able to get her out of the car seat, change her out of her underwear into a pullup and she fell back asleep in bed....and is still sleeping 2 1/2 hours later.
