A Zoo Story

One day Baby Blake decided to go to the zoo. It was a gorgeously warm day in March and he thought to himself "what better way to spend the day than outside with the animals?" So he invited his Mama, grandparents, and aunts along as well.

Baby Blake decided to take a snooze on the way to the zoo. He needed to save his energy for all the animal watching he was about to do and he knew his Mama would wear him out since she loooooves the zoo.



He arrives to his destination and thought it good to document exactly where he is.





The zoo was full of interesting animals to see but most surprising were a few strange things that happened while we were there...

...like Papa actually pushing the stroller!


...and his Mama and Aunts turning into animals!



...and his Aunt Sunny acting like a monkey swinging from a tree! Strange things indeed!


Little Blake decided it was time for a tasty treat and while he finished up his lunch, his aunts and Mama decided they wanted a tasty treat as well, Dipping Dots! It started out innocently enough with the three girls sharing the one bowl of ice cream (but is that the wisest idea?)

"Yummmm", the girls cried.


"We shall shove it in our mouths or lick it up like cats!", they said. Slurp, slurp.
Being at the zoo really did cause their animal instincts to come out and they stopped playing nice.
"Enough of the sharing... it's mine!", they shrieked.



"Whoa, girls!", Baby Blake said.

"There should be plenty of ice cream to go around!"
After the ice cream fight, Baby Blake decided he needed a break from the weird things that were happening and snuggled in for a nice nap on his Aunt Sunny's shoulder.


After his nap he decided to look at more animals and saw this magical-dwarfed-mountain-gazelle-thing that had glowing eyes. Ooh-wee-ooh. (spooky music)






Baby Blake was so scared of this glowing eyed creature that he thought the best thing to do was play dead.

After that strange event he went to see the rhinos but the rhinos were scary too. They were eating chunks of rock!



That freaked Baby Blake out so he hid his little face from the enormous spiked monster.



At least the elephants were nice.


His Mama was so giddy from the day at the zoo but he was pretty pooped.


"Ah, but it was a good day even if it was a little strange", he thought to himself as he drifted away once more with a contented smile on his face.



The End

Yeah the gazelle was funny too. I love the ooh wee ooh! LOL! I think I want to steal Sunny's idea and print this story too!!!
Sunny, you don't remember swinging on a tree? That was right after the us-as-animals thing.

I love it! The "Whoa, girls" face is awesome! And no red-eye weird glare, either!
